Program accomplishments

  • During the period of July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, SVUDL worked with 19 high school partners in Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties, serving nearly 2,500 students. Of these students, 856 students participated in the highest level of involvement attending 10+ practices and at least 1 tournament. In addition to afterschool Speech & Debate programming, SVUDL has been more active in the classroom working with our high school partners to develop a customized plan that also includes Speech & Debate Curriculum offerings and Debate Centered Instruction (DCI). This comprehensive approach provides for rigorous instruction, student engagement, and teacher support. SVUDL staff and Teacher Coaches spent more than 36,000 hours with students throughout the year. In addition, students participated in 12 Professional Access visits. Lastly, independent research has shown once again the participation in any of SVUDL's three programs was correlated with higher GPAs for participating students compared to their non-participating peers.
