Ohio Center for Law-Related Education

Description

OCLRE partners with teachers to bring citizenship to life. As such, OCLRE provides academic programs for students in grades 4-12, with a focus on civic education, government and law. Student programs include Mock Trial, We the People, literature-based Middle School Mock Trial, Moot Court, Project Citizen and Youth for Justice.

All programs are aligned with state learning standards and engage students with a question to be answered and/or a problem to be solved. Collaboration is important. Every academic program incoporates a culminating activity that helps make the learning 'real' for students.
