Approximately 170 high school students from Anne Arundel County are set to attend a court session on Thursday, November 10. The event is part of the Schools in the Court program at the Anne Arundel County District Court in Annapolis. The initiative aims to educate students about the legal and financial consequences of offenses such as drunk driving.
The participating students hail from Arundel, Chesapeake, Glen Burnie, and North County high schools. They will observe court proceedings and hear firsthand accounts from individuals who have faced significant impacts due to poor decisions. Additionally, they will have an opportunity to meet members of the Maryland State Police K-9 squad.
Anne Arundel County District Judge Shaem C.P. Spencer will oversee the proceedings. This event marks the second installment of four Schools in the Court programs scheduled for this academic year by the District Court of Maryland in Anne Arundel County.
The program will take place on Thursday from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Courtroom 1, Anne Arundel County District Court, located at 251 Rowe Boulevard in Annapolis.
