LAW DAY POSTERS DUE APRIL 12
Every year the SWLA Bar Association hosts a contest for local students in conjunction with Law Day, a national day to celebrate the rule of law and what it means for Americans’ freedom. Local lawyers review the submissions and recognize and invite the winners to the annual Law Day ceremony in the Calcasieu Parish Courthouse with our local attorneys and Judges. The winning students and their parents will be invited to the ceremony.
Students K-12th are encouraged to submit posters that they draw or color themselves on a standard large size poster or submit a one-page single spaced essay. The theme for the 2022-2023 school year is “Toward a More Perfect Union: The Constitution in Times of Change”.
Posters and essays are due to Mrs. Ardoin by April 12th.
