Inside the Courthouse

Get a sneak peek at courtroom drama and gain a better understanding of your civic rights and responsibilities. In this course, you’ll learn the ins and outs of the legal process and experience who's who at trials and how trials work. You’ll have opportunities to play a lawyer or a witness and hone life skills such as listening, speaking, reading and reasoning. Throughout the course you’ll work as part of a team, and on the last day of class you’ll compete in a mock trial.
