San Ramon Valley HighMock Trial

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

Mock Trial is a project-based course. Students learn the basics of a criminal case and then focus on one particular case to reenact. Students act as attorneys, witnesses, and supporters. They create and practice direct examinations, crossexaminations, opening and closing statements, and objections. After-school time is required to compete in the Contra Costa County Mock Trial Competition in February, but most other work is done in class.
