The
Dutchess County Bar Association has established a panel of volunteer
lawyers who are available as a valuable resource to teachers on many
subjects. Lawyers in the Classroom Program volunteers can be utilized
in the following ways:
- As resource persons, available to answer general questions
about the law.
- As guest lecturers or discussion leaders.
- As mock trial advisors.
- As courthouse tour guides.
- As a spokesperson on Law Day (May 1).
Regardless
of how much you know about the law, your classroom activities can be
enriched by arranging for an attorney to speak to your students several
times each year.
Lawyers are available for presentations at
schools and civic organizations. If your organization is looking for a
speaker, please contact the Bar Association at (845) 473-2488.
