Students Show Their Skills At Moot Court Competition
Walter G. O’Connell Copiague High School students recently participated in the Long Island Mentor Moot Court Competition at the U.S. District Court in Central Islip. Students competed against other schools in Suffolk County in a case about fourth and fifth amendment rights in the school environment. They worked extensively with lawyers from the Copiague community to prepare for the competition.
Students fielded questions from judges and lawyers while they delivered 10-minute speeches on behalf of their chosen issue. Congratulations to the following participants: Scott Coy, Yeslyn Canales, Moises Casco-Lopez, Johnathan Lopez, Tatiana Pantaleon, Gianna Viglione and Emma Villalobos.
