Mock Trial 2009 Begins

Today was our organizational meeting for the mock trial team. I have most of my stars back for their senior years and a crop of eager sophomores. I've not read this year's scenario but I'm acquiring movies for our movie day and the teacher and I are both optimistic about the team's chances at winning the whole tournament. It's really fun to see the kids learn confidence, master the basics of trial procedure, and acquire the skill of thinking on their feet.
