Coach Martin Rawls and his 11th grade U.S. History class partnered with the Arkansas Supreme Court for their Judicial Outreach Week, which takes place every year during the first 10 days of March.
Arkansas Supreme Court Justice Barbara Webb joined our 11th grade students this morning via zoom with a discussion about liberty, equal protection of the law, and the preservation of fair and impartial courts.
Our students had the opportunity to ask the justice many insightful questions and had an in depth Q & A session following her presentation. They look forward to hopefully visiting the Justice Building in Little Rock when it is safe to do so.
We were often reminded that the court system belongs to the people.
Thanks for spending time with some of our students this morning Justice Webb!
