In 2008, Riverfield Founder Marty Clark and Upper School Head Toby Clark gave Mr. David Wright the green light to begin teaching an Upper School Speech & Debate Elective and launch a competitive team with a handful of eager students.  From those small beginnings RAVENS SPEECH & DEBATE has emerged to become a fixture on the RCDS campus and a formidable program that has earned respect throughout the state of Oklahoma.
