Free online program available on civics, laws for San Antonio teachers


NEW YORK, NEW YORK - APRIL 09: A gavel sits on the table as New York City Criminal Court Judge Paul McDonnell works remotely from his Brooklyn apartment due to the coronavirus outbreak on April 09, 2020 in New York City. Judge McDonnell, who usually presides over cases in a Manhattan court room, has had to alter his work routine by hearing cases remotely due to the virus outbreak. While Judge McDonnell still works a full day, he has seen a drop in criminal arrests as COVID-19 slows all New York activity. Across the country, the whole legal profession has been forced to find innovative ways to keep the justice system moving as safety concerns continue to prevent large gatherings.

SAN ANTONIO - A free online program on civics and laws that impact schools will be available for interested teachers!

The San Antonio and Corpus Christi chapters of the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA) announced Wednesday its program is designed to help middle and high school teachers interested in focusing on civics and law-related education in their classrooms.

The program will be only available for one day only on Friday, Oct. 23 at 8:45 a.m. until 4:45 p.m.

The panel of speakers will feature community leaders like police chiefs, federal judges, lawyers and school board professionals.

“ABOTA volunteer members are excited to offer this first ABOTA seminar to South Texas educators,” attorney and program organizer Sandra Laurel said. “Teachers and administrators have shown an interest in receiving advanced training and information about contemporary law issues, the impact of COVID-19, and learning more about the Bill of Rights."

The program is made possible by the generous sponsorship of San Antonio law firms Carabin Shaw and Langley & Banack, Inc. Taking these courses will also enable teachers to earn free Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits.
