Justice Iredell Middle School Mock Trial Tournament
The Justice Iredell Middle School Mock Trial Tournament is held annually and hosted at a regional courthouse in the participating schools surrounding area. The tournament is for North Carolina middle school teachers to instruct in their classroom to help increase their student's skills with critical thinking, problem-solving, language arts, public speaking and more.
What student would not like to see themselves as a defender of the "innocent" or the prosecutor of the "guilty"? Although television and movie courtroom scenes distort real courtroom procedures, the drama of the courtroom is real. People's lives are on the line; their families, livelihood, and even their bank accounts are in the hands of the judge and jury.
The 2013 JUSTICE IREDELL MIDDLE SCHOOL MOCK TRIAL TOURNAMENT is being planned for early December and will be held at several regional courthouses closest to participating teams.
Details will be posted and broadcast to LRE Education Partners by August 1st.
