The 2016 Massachusetts Mock Trial Competition is under way, and Carver students, let by Ms. Perkins are preparing to present either side of the case. This year challenges the team with a criminal murder case involving a war veteran who may or may not have suffered from PTSD which did or didn’t activate a reflexive response to fireworks going off around him; the end result was that his high school nemesis was shot multiple times and killed. The trial dates and final team have not yet been set, but stay tuned.

James Otis Scholars
CMHS seniors Natalie Mosher, Sabrina Pangione, Ryan Semple, Connor Skinner, and Madison Staples, were recently nominated as James Otis Scholars and participated in the ninth annual Lecture Series at the Massachusetts State House in Boston on September 19th.
The Massachusetts chapter of the American Board of Trial Advocates holds the annual event to commemorate Constitution Day, the signing of the US Constitution on September 17.
Students sat in the Chamber of the House of Representative in the State House and heard a panel of law experts deliver speeches and answer questions during the program– Religion and the Law.
The students enjoyed the field trip, learned insightful information about the separation of church and state and are now recognized as “James Otis Scholars.”
