Notes:
Period: 
I teach a Mock Trial class during my 5th period. . . the challenge I face is that our school works on a rotating schedule...If I need to I will try and arrange for my students to meet outside of class time during the day to meet with visitors if its not possible to meet when our class is in session. I will need advanced notice to arrange this, but I believe its possible to accomplish. If guests are able to meet after school hours at 2pm on Wednesdays or Thursdays that would work out well as an after school tutorial. 
 
Visit Spans: 
We are completely open to any time that is available for interested guests. However, the fall semester would work out well in preparation for Mock Trial competition.
