Mission Statement
The program provides a way for students to gain an insider’s view of our judicial system. A team of 6-10 students compete against their peers by analyzing and trying a fictional case in a mock trial court. Students improve their critical thinking and public speaking skills while teachers touch on Social Studies, Government, and CTE TEKS!
