Mentoring
Thurgood Marshall Academy pairs a student with a professional adult who can offer support, advice, and guidance during a student's final years of high school and the critical post-secondary planning process. Mentoring can improve a student's attitude toward school, enhance his/her confidence, and afford the invaluable opportunity to interact with a positive role model. Interested? Check out our Be
a Mentor page. |
Law Days
Local law firms host our 9th-grade students in monthly workshops designed to familiarize students with the US Legal system through mock trials, round table discussions, and interactive case studies. Georgetown Law Center's Street Law Clinic provides curricula and training for host firms. If you would more information about hosting Law Day at your firm, please contact us. |
