A booklet entitled, The Courts as the Third Branch of Government is available for teachers who might wish to prepare their students for that presentation. Judicial officers are also available to participate in Career Days as requested, where similar subjects and materials are discussed. With a desire to increase the number of field trips to the courthouse, the court provides a more formal program called Courthouse Tours. Each tour includes a presentation to the students by a Judge and courtroom staff. Attorneys in the District Attorney's Office and from the defense bar may be available for some tours to provide information to the students.
Students learn the roles of the judge, attorneys, clerk, bailiff, and court reporter.
In addition to providing students basic information about the justice system, it is hoped that students will be exposed to career opportunities many of them had not considered before. The County of Office Education has indicated that their science camp buses are available for transportation on days when those buses are not in use. This program is for students who are high school juniors and seniors and involves a four-week program during the summer. Monday through Friday, these students spend the first half of the day with their mentor. The program is designed to provide the students with insight into the justice system and career mentoring.
