CIS Peer Court changing student lives

Mikayla has has been active and volunteering in Peer Court for two years at Cedar Grove Middle School. She says, “CIS at CGMS makes you feel very included. I love working with Peer Court and being able to help other students who have done wrong and give them a second chance without hurting their permanent record. Peer Court is a good program because it allows you to meet new people and become friends (even from the opposing side) because you are all involved in the program. My favorite role is a prosecutor in Peer Court, but I also like mentoring younger students and teaching them how the court system works. Peer Court is a great program because it helps kids to stay on the right track. I will definitely stay involved with Teen Court when I go on to high school!”
