NKY Teen Court
The Northern Kentucky Teen Court will be back in session on Tuesday, September 11, 2018 at 6:00 p.m. and is looking for local high school students to participate in this exciting program. Sessions are held each Tuesday during the training phase, September 11 - October 23, 2018, and twice per month during the trial phase, November 2018 - April 2019. All sessions are held at the Campbell County Courthouse; 330 York Street; Newport, KY.
A division of District Court, Teen Court enables local high school students from Boone, Campbell, and Kenton Counties to experience the wheels of justice first-hand. Student participants serve in all roles of the court system - prosecuting attorney, defense attorney, juror, bailiff, and court clerk - with Campbell County District Judges Karen Thomas, Campbell County District Judge Cameron Blau, and local practicing attorneys presiding over the court proceedings.
Actual juvenile offenders are referred to the court for sentencing by a Teen Court Jury - a true jury of their peers - and represented and prosecuted by members of the Teen Court. Students who participate in the Program will develop more sophisticated communication styles, as well as improved problem solving, critical thinking, and other valuable skills.
In an effort to avoid conflict with school activities, Teen Court training and court sessions are held in the evening. Student participants are required to attend all six (6) training sessions, as well as the actual court sessions that occur a maximum of twice a month.
The time spent in Teen Court can be used to fulfill community service requirements and helps to build an exciting and comprehensive resume' for college applications. Best of all, there is no cost associated with participating in Teen Court.
REQUIREMENTS TO PARTICIATE IN TEEN COURT:
1) Must be in grades 9 through 12, at least 13 years of age and not over 18 years of age;
2) Must attend all six training sessions and the swearing in ceremony unless excused by Teen Court Coordinator;
3) Must commit to an academic year of service starting in September and ending in April.

Transcripts
With the click of a mouse, students can securely send the transcript directly to any participating post-secondary school at no cost through July of the year they graduate from high school. In the past, high school counselors have had to physically handle transcript requests - sometimes at a cost to the parent/student.
Kentucky's eTranscript standard format also expedites the processing of thousands of transcripts each year at colleges and universities and speeds acceptance notification.
