Chatham High School's Business Law class had an eventful day at the Columbia County Courthouse, where they saw first hand the justice system at work and learned about being a judge, lawyer, and clerk. They met with the Honorary Judge Howard, a defense attorney, a family court attorney, and an attorney representing a child. The students also had the opportunity to sit in and witness a jury selection process. They even read a transcript of Martin Van Buren's will!
Career & Technical Education (CTE) courses like our Business Law class provide students with real-world opportunities and life skills. This is just one example of what our CTE classes offer!
