The City Championship was the culminating event of the season, which brought together nearly 200 high school students from 26 Chicago Public Schools, all vying for the title of 2021 High School Debate Champion. In teams of two, students debated the topic of Criminal Justice Reform: The United States federal government should enact substantial criminal justice reform in the United States in one or more of the following areas: forensic science, policing, sentencing. Chicago Debates presented Gregorio Chavez of Pritzker College Prep with the 2021 Debater of the Year Award and Ryan Howell from Von Steuben Metropolitan Science Center as the 2021 Coach of the Year. Chicago Debates Associate Board member and recently appointed Cook County Public Defender, Sharone Mitchell, was also recognized as Chicago Debates’ Alum of the Year (Morgan Park, Class of 2001). Sharone credits the power of debate for much of his success: "I think Chicago Debates is a great engine of social change because we are building up the leaders of our city. We're putting them on a path to change the world. I have this incredible debt of gratitude to this program, to this activity.
