This year, Fremont Debate Academy (FDA), a 501 © (3) non-profit organization, is running the 3rd annual 8 week long competitive debate program focusing on the Middle School Public Debate Format at Azevada Elementary School. Students will learn various structured forms of argumentation, and research techniques. Through practice sessions, drills, and mini-competitions, students’ public speaking skills will be vastly improved. It will be led by Azevada teacher Mrs. Joleen Diaz. At the end of the school year, there will be a FDA international tournament!
