Today was an enriching day for Mrs. Hammer's Criminal Justice class as they stepped inside the McLeod County Court House!

Huge thanks to Mrs. Susan Bruegemeier for orchestrating this invaluable experience. Students were grateful for the opportunity to deepen their understanding of justice firsthand!
