Constitutional Law Class 
at George Washington High School 

Young people around the country are inspiring change and political activism among their peers. At Bailey & Wyant, PLLC we believe it's essential to empower high school students to have a clear understanding of the Constitution and their rights under it.
 
Our Associate, Michael Taylor instructs a group of junior and senior George Washington High School students on Constitutional Law. Every weekday, he helps students understand the importance of the U.S. Constitution and how it is applicable to everyday life.

"This class teaches them important life skills," explains Taylor. "To be able to process information, especially when it comes in fragmented pieces, and understand it is an essential life skill. Being able to understand and have the skills necessary to clearly communicate that information is something that will allow them to succeed throughout their lives."

Taylor engages students in the understanding of the legal system through his lessons, helping students formulate oral arguments and prepare for mock trial.

"You've got the facts, the law, the human element of witnesses and you have to take those pieces and put them together in a clear picture for the jury," explains Taylor. "All of the puzzle pieces are scattered on the table and it's their responsibility to arrange them in a persuasive way that makes sense to the jury."
