Highlight
ISD is a nationally recognized speech and debate summer camp program for middle and high school students. Designed, managed, and staffed by championship speech and debate coaches, we offer the highest quality speech and debate program in the nation. While we work hard to win, we also have fun.

Above all, we are a community dedicated to each other and to our shared passion for speech and debate. At ISD, your students will grow their public speaking, research, argumentation, performance, and communication skills!
