This Saturday, the JBS Law Magnet debate team competed at the Arlington High School Tournament . In novice Lincoln-Douglas debate, Dino De La O reached the quarterfinal round, placing 5th overall. In Varsity Lincoln-Douglas debate, Kimberly Pesina reached semifinals, which means she finished 3rd out of 48 competitors! By reaching semis, she earned 4 points toward qualifying for the State Championship. Students need a total of 12 points to qualify. In Varsity CX debate, Ivan Garcia and Seneca Okere won the tournament and, in doing so, finished their qualification to the State Championship!
