The RCSA Middle-High Middle and High Debate Teams attended their first North Florida FCDI competition for the season at Gainesville High School on October 7th and 8th, 2023.

The tournament was large, with several competing schools from the North Florida region.

RCSA had several placements, including three 1^st place winners. 

 We are extremely proud of our teams and the hard work and dedication they have shown for our school and the debate community.
