Grace Christian Academy students from Kindergarten to high school did well in the last monthly qualifying competitions of the Primary Grades Forensic Conference for Kindergarten to 5th graders, Junior Thespians for 6th to 8th grades, and the National Speech and Debate Association competition for 9th to 12th grades. They won in different events like reading, public speaking, interpretations, and performing arts. <\/p>\n

GCA\u2019s PGFC competitors won several awards to qualify and prepare them for the regional competition in March.<\/p>\n

GCA 6th grader Sara Elizabeth Keaton, the only GCA Thespian competitor, won third place in solo musical in the last Junior Thespian competition.<\/p>\n

Like their younger schoolmates in Kindergarten to 5th grades who won in the PGFC competition, Grace Christian Academy\u2019s seven National Speech and Debate Association competitors soared high at the January competitions. All of NSDA competitors won one or more of the events they competed in.<\/p>\n
