Our volunteers are law students, practicing attorneys, and professors.

Because of our talented and dedicated volunteers, 100% of teachers who responded to a White Center survey said they would participate in the Colorado Law Constitution Day Project again and would recommend it to a colleague.

As Ms. Gentert, a Social Studies teacher at Erie High School, explained:

"I would definitely encourage colleagues to participate in this Project as the speakers related well to my students and used a simulation that was both engaging and instructional.

The Project enlightened my students by showing Constitutional Law in action and inspired them to consider the role of law in their current lives. The presentation not only brought the content to life, but was also practical as it illuminated a possible career choice for my students."

"My favorite part of Constitution Day was shaking hands with the young adults who had listened so intently to our presentation and generously shared their ideas. I encourage other attorneys to participate in this program. The Constitution is fundamental to our legal system. If the average citizen does not understand how the Constitution protects them, it is little more than an old piece of paper."

Jocelyn Jenks: Associate Attorney at The Logan Firm; Class of 2012

"When the Constitution Day Project started in 2011, I was excited for the opportunity to discuss pertinent constitutional issues with a younger generation. The experience was wonderful, and I jumped at the opportunity to work with high school students again this year. I plan to continue my involvement with the Constitution Day Project because I think that an important part of being a lawyer is giving back to your community."

Drew Kraniak: Class of 2015

"The best part of my experience was when I heard multiple high school students say, 'I really wish this class was longer!' I would encourage other law students to participate next year because it only takes an afternoon and it is incredibly rewarding. Plus, teaching others is one of the best ways to learn and master difficult concepts."

"My favorite part of the presentation was when we went over the Fourth Amendment Case Summaries. Many students were able to express bits and pieces of the legal analysis, and clearly had the correct intuition. One student was even able to articulate the analysis step-by-step, applying the law to the facts exactly how it is done in the real world."
