The Commissioner's Academic Challenge (CAC) is Florida's statewide high school academic tournament. It is held at the Contemporary Resort in Walt Disney World each spring, usually in April. Each county in Florida is asked to send a team composed of six high school students. Participating counties are separated into three divisions based on their full-time enrollment numbers for grades 9-12.
