Mock Trial - Students participate as attorneys and witnesses in a simulated criminal or civil case where they prepare and then compete against other gifted students from various districts. Students utilize critical thinking skills to plan a defense or prosecution/plaintiff strategy to win the case and sharpen their public speaking skills. Students will practice and prepare for this event in the previous months during GATE class. A Google Form for interest will be posted at the beginning of September. The first 14 students to sign up will be on the team.
