Law Week, All Year Long
Traditionally, lawyers and judges in Washington state have visited classrooms in their communities during the first week of May, in conjunction with the American Bar Association's Law Day held on May 1. During these visits they talk with students at all grade levels about the law, courts, and the American system of justice.
The Washington State Bar Association, in partnership with the state courts and the Access to Justice Board, are strongly encouraging schools to teach about the law all year long. We thus encourage lawyers and judges to make classroom visits at all times of the year, not just in May.
Join your colleagues across Washington in promoting public legal education in our schools. Use this website to find the resources you need to plan a successful classroom visit.
