A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE THE STROM THURMOND HIGH SCHOOL MOCK TRIAL TEAM ON WINNING THE 2022 SOUTH CAROLINA BAR HIGH SCHOOL MOCK TRIAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

Whereas, the Strom Thurmond High School Mock Trial Team earned their ninth state title on March 12, 2022; and

Whereas, in the past month, between the South Carolina state and regional Mock Trial competitions hosting thirty-four teams, the competition was made possible by two hundred fifty volunteers comprised of presiding judges, attorneys serving as judges and as attorney coaches, and law students; and

Whereas, the state finals featured twelve teams competing in two championship rounds. Carolina Forest High School of Horry County Schools was the first runner-up, and the Governor's School for Science and Mathematics of Hartsville received the Professionalism and Civility Award; and

Whereas, the team, coached by teachers Denise Jackson and Steven McKinney and attorney Blair Massey, will advance to the National High School Mock Trial Championship, which will be held in Kalamazoo, Michigan; and

Whereas, the team's victory indicates a high level of knowledge and skill possessed by its members and is an outstanding accomplishment deserving of recognition. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the Senate, by this resolution, congratulate the Strom Thurmond High School Mock Trial Team on winning the 2022 South Carolina Bar High School Mock Trial Championship.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Strom Thurmond High School Mock Trial Team.
