The 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ debate team is doing better than ever.
Two weeks before classes commenced at his new high school, Matthew Gomez found himself in the vice principal’s office.
Jacob Thompson, director of 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏs debate team, welcomes students attending a viewing party for the first presidential debate of 2016, Monday September 26, 2016.
Politicians often speak of taking campaigns to the grass-roots level, but Dr. Jacob Thompson and his 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ students are digging even deeper, planting the seeds of election education across the Clark County School District.
Students at 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ are not sitting on the sidelines when it comes to politics; they're getting involved in the process through a series of watch parties and interactive discussions.
