Unique law programs


Picture

HeAR from our Law Program Partners Below:

As Chicago's only legal themed high school, we offer supplementary law-themed programs that make our school unique. Not only do our students learn inside of the classroom, but we take time outside of the classroom to interact with legal professionals, participate in analytical thinking activities, and build relationships with individuals in their communities. We believe that these programs enrich our students' education, and influence them to be well-versed advocates for themselves, their community, and their city.

​Each grade level has both a distinctive law class imbedded in the school day as well as a regular external program where they partner with a corporate legal department or law firm.
