Power of Co-Curricular Activities

If you have ever watched the local news in the Raleigh-Durham/Triangle area (on NBC affiliate WNCN), you may have seen a familiar face.  Sean Maroney is a an anchor and reporter, but he is also a 2002 graduate of Asheboro High School.  He recently shared a link on his anchor Facebook page where he wrote about how his participation in the Mock Trial program at AHS prepared him for his current work.  It is an excellent lesson on teamwork in sync with personal accountability and responsibility.  That is also an example of 21st century learning in schools, but not confined to a classroom.  What we do makes a difference...all the time!  Please click here to read his article on ncmocktrial.org.  I urge you to share with students.
