Mock Trial

Today, Antioch's seventh & eighth graders had their Mock Trial at Umass of Dartmouth’s Law School.  Sixth Graders were witnesses in the trial.  Thank you to UMass Law for allowing us to use their courtroom. A special thanks to Samantha DaRocha (Antioch Class of 2012) for teaching about Mock Trial for the past few months.  It was a great experience for everyone involved.
