Our next evolution to prepare the confident communicators and leaders of tomorrow.
Led by Dylan Pope, an Emmy Award–winning expert in children’s educational media, and developed with educators from the University of Chicago, UC Berkeley, and the University of Texas at Austin, we’ve taken our learning-by-doing philosophy to the next level.
Our first step is an ambitious curriculum upgrade that expands every aspect of the learning experience — time, depth, and value — to help students debate, think, and lead at their highest potential.
From 60 → 60 minutes
Deeper concept reinforcement, guided drills, and richer discussions for MS and HS classes. ES classes will remain at 60 minutes.
From 10 → 10 weeks
More time for full debates and comprehensive skill development across research, speaking, and strategy.

Greater impact for families — more growth, same mission.
Every part of CDA Reimagined 2026 was shaped by what matters most — the voices of our parents, students, and educators. Over the past year, we’ve listened closely to your ideas, experiences, and hopes for what debate education can become. Your feedback helped us refine our programs, modernize our systems, and ensure that every student’s journey is engaging, supportive, and transformative.
And we’re not stopping here. Over the next year, we plan to expand our offerings beyond debate — introducing math tutoring, test preparation, and college consulting services designed to help our families succeed in every dimension of learning. These additions will build on the same mission that drives everything we do: developing confident communicators, critical thinkers, and lifelong learners.
To everyone who has taken the time to share feedback, complete surveys, or speak with our team — thank you. Your partnership continues to inspire us to raise the bar for what academic enrichment can be. Together, we’re not only shaping stronger debaters, but more thoughtful leaders for the world ahead.
This is just the beginning of what’s ahead with CDA Reimagined 2026. Our enhanced structure ensures every student experiences more practice, more progress, and more purpose in every class.
