Students in Dr. Saylor’s English III class stepped into the courtroom last week for a full-scale mock trial inspired by The Crucible. While reading Arthur Miller’s classic, students brought the play to life by taking on the roles of judges, attorneys, witnesses, and jurors in The Commonwealth of Salem vs. Elizabeth Proctor. They analyzed evidence, questioned motives, delivered opening and closing statements, and debated what justice, truth, and integrity really mean. This engaging activity challenged students to think critically, argue effectively, and connect timeless themes to the world around them, all while having a little fun in 1692 Salem.

📷 Don't forget, Picture Day is Friday, November 7th, for all Harlan middle school and high school students! This includes Senior photos.
