Mock Trial Tournament
The annual Statewide High School Mock Trial Tournament, the nation's largest, provides students with hands-on opportunities to further their understanding of the law, court procedures, and our legal system, while honing their speaking, listening, reading, and reasoning skills. County champions advance to regional competitions, with six teams meeting in Albany for the statewide finals each May.
