Christian Heritage Academy of Del City
is in the City of Brotherly Love. CHA
students, who claimed the Oklahoma High
School Mock Trial Championship are representing
our state in Philadelphia at the national
competition.
This year?s case, Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania v. Maddox Hale, focuses
on a high school student charged with
a number of crimes including aggravated
assault and solicitation to commit
aggravated assault when he led a protest
rally at a local mall. He was widely
suspected as the leader behind the
gang Children of Liberty, who were
organized through social networking
that directed their resentment toward
new Principal Carter G. Braxton for
his new school policies.
This
year?s winning mock trial team was coached
by teacher Jerrid Eischen and attorney
coach Jennifer Miller. Returning for
a third year on the ?Crusaders? team
are Jarred Miller and Ryan Morrisett.
Second-year team members are Katie Ceyler,
Karis Cherry, Kristin Copeland and Maddison
Williams. This is Stone Hendrickson?s
first year on the team.
The
tournament runs through Saturday, May
8, with the championship trophy being
awarded at an evening banquet. Good luck
to Christian Heritage Academy!
