High school students go to court to learn about the law
A group of local students had the chance to visit a busy courtroom Tuesday as part of a high school law class.
Students from the Law 30 class at Prince Albert Collegiate Institute (PACI) visited Prince Albert Provincial Court to learn more about the legal system and career opportunities in the field.
The students heard about court procedure, careers in law and legislation around youth matters in court. Grade 11 student Levi Werner said he is looking forward to learning more as the school year continues.
“It just was eye-opening to see how everything goes down, to know my rights and freedoms, and I’m very glad I took this class,” Werner told paNOW. “I never thought I was really interested in law until I was actually sitting down in the courtroom.”
