The West Liberty-Salem High School Mock Trial Team recently visited The Supreme Court of Ohio and The Thomas J. Moyer Judicial Center.
Organized by government teacher and Mock Trial Team Advisor, Sean Stormes, this trip offered students an up-close look at the history, role, and crucial responsibilities of our court system.
During the visit, students participated in engaging discussions about the importance of civic participation, the election of justices and judges, and the significance of jury duty.
They also explored thought-provoking case studies, gaining a deeper understanding of the legal process.
This experience was a valuable opportunity for the Mock Trial Team to examine the past, present, and future of our judicial system while engaging in hands-on learning at The Ohio Supreme Court.
The Mock Trial Team includes Collin Thompson, Taran Logwood, Anna Cole, Ava Chamberlain, Silas King, Greyson Horsley, Connor Garman-Ferguson, Sadie Paul, and Gwen McCullough.
The team will compete in Districts at the Marion County Courthouse on Friday, January 17th, for a chance to advance to the Regional and State competitions in February.
