At Carter G. Woodson, we participated in the NCAJ High Mock Trial Program.

Mock Trial is a state-sponsored program whereby high school students become lawyers and witnesses and try cases in front of other lawyers and prominent judges.

​

The purpose of Mock Trial is to educate North Carolina High School students about the justice system and the importance of a trial by jury. High school students engage in a Mock Trial in real courtrooms across the great state of North Carolina.

​

Our students work directly with attorneys and judges to get valuable hands-on experience with crucial ideas of justice, civic-mindedness, and fairness.
