The Palmetto Education Summit 2026

Looking for engaging civics resources that go beyond the textbook?  This session highlights the South Carolina Bar's Law Related Education programs that provide teachers with free curriculum materials, competitions, and experiential learning opportunities to students.  From Mock Trial, to We the People congressional hearings, to helping you schedule field excursions to your local courthouses, to pairing you with local attorneys to be guest speakers, the Law Related Education Division of the SC Bar is here to help!  These programs help students explore the law, develop civic knowledge, and practice the skills needed for active citizenship- all following the SC Social Studies College and Career Readiness Standards.   Participants will learn how to easily integrate these opportunities into their classrooms and schools in this interactive high energy session.
