After we wrapped up our citizenship unit, we were able to go on a fabulous fieldtrip to the Twin Falls County Courthouse. Thank you so much to Julie Sturgill, Judge Bevan, and all of the very gracious county employees who helped our children with the opportunity to visit. We had a great time.
We toured the old courthouse. Such a neat building.
This is the old jail cell. ONE jail cell. It is on the top floor of the old courthouse. Prisoners stayed there, while the warden and his family lived across the hall.
Students were able to spend some time in a courtroom with Judge Bevan. Hopefully, they were able to learn some important things about citizenship and how the courts can help citizens.
