Nearly 70 children joined us for Take Your Child to Work Day at the Broward County Courthouse, enjoying a day packed with hands-on learning and fun.
From participating in a mock trial to tackling a tricky math game and sharpening their observation skills with a wild video challenge, the students got an inside look at how the courthouse works. They also met several judges and didn’t hesitate to ask plenty of thoughtful questions about the judiciary.
The excitement continued with therapy dog visits — including a goldendoodle and a golden retriever — a chance to explore a Broward Sheriff’s Office SWAT truck, and a loud, high-energy Jeopardy!-style game that had everyone cheering as students competed against one another.
It was a lively, memorable day that gave these young visitors a meaningful glimpse into the justice system. Each child also left with a certificate of participation and a Pocket Constitution to remember their day. Many thanks to all the judges and staff that made this special day such a success! #17thjudteam
