Since the beginning of January, six TMA ninth graders have
spent their Monday evenings in the courtroom of Judge Robert Rigsby at the DC
Superior Court. These freshmen are
participating in Judge Rigsby's Law Camp, a selective leadership program that
focuses on introducing students to the criminal justice system and careers in
the legal profession. Throughout the
spring semester, students will hear guest speakers and learn legal principles
in preparation for a mock trial that will take place at the end of June. Last week, NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Jealous
presented about his experiences with community organizing and civil rights
advocacy.
