High School Mock Trial Mentoring
Attorney Amy Menzel has been working with local high school students as a coach and judge for mock trial teams for 15 years. Her teams have won numerous awards, including co-coaching Xavier High School in Appleton to multiple state championships at the annual Wisconsin High School Mock Trial Tournament, and going on to compete at the National High School Mock Trial Championship.
In mock trial, students take on the roles of attorneys and witnesses in a simulated courtroom to argue hypothetical cases before a judge or jury. Students hone their critical thinking, public speaking and collaborative skills through opening statements, cross-examination and closing arguments. The best teams advance through several rounds to the championship.
