Teach Democracy , formerly known as the Constitutional Rights Foundation, a Los Angeles-based non-profit that provides nonpartisan civic education through interactive programs for youth, hosted its 2024 California Mock Trial Finals at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in Los Angeles. This year’s state finals welcomed 550 students from 32 high school teams from 31 counties in California to argue the fictitious murder case of People v. Clark, in which a CEO of a company is murdered after an IPO goes awry. Hundreds of parents, teachers, and coaches joined the competitors in the courtroom galleries to watch students argue the case in front of real judges. Trinity Pacific Christian School from Woodland Hills in Ventura County won the state finals and will represent California at the 2024 National High School Mock Trial Competition in Wilmington, Delaware in May. “Mock trial is a program that provides a valuable experience in learning about the U.S judicial system and helps young people get civically engaged,” said Lourdes Morales, senior program director at Teach Democracy. “Students who participate in Mock Trial develop critical thinking skills, strengthen their public speaking abilities and gain confidence that impacts their educational and personal growth.” See our event coverage: ABC7 Los Angeles - Teach Democracy Hosts 43rd Annual California Mock Trial Finals Spectrum News 1 - Student Compete for Top Prize in California Mock Trial Finals Los Angeles Daily News - Louisville High School students lost in mock court competition, but that’s OK KNX-AM Los Angeles - Teach Democracy Hosts 43rd Annual California Mock Trial Finals California Lutheran University Radio - Young legal eagles from the Conejo Valley win statewide trial competition New Tang Dynasty - Teach Democracy Hosts 43rd Annual California Mock Trial Finals
