Grade 7 English PBA Showcase Seventh Graders Bring Landmark Trials to Life in Interactive Showcase

June 17, 2025

This week, our seventh graders transformed the hallways into a vibrant courtroom of ideas, showcasing their deep dive into justice, bias, and the power of the press. The "Trials of the Century" exhibit featured student-written newspaper articles, dramatic reenactments, and interactive displays exploring three landmark cases: the Scopes "Monkey Trial," 12 Angry Men, and the Keyton free speech debate.

Visitors marveled at the colorful newsprint articles—professionally printed on real newspaper stock—lining the walls. Each piece demonstrated the students' grasp of journalistic balance as they dissected the trials' controversies.

The highlight was a special edition newspaper compiling the best articles from each Grade 7 English class, printed on real newsprint and delivered to participants. Nearby, a Q&A station invited visitors to debate controversial topics, while video clips showed students performing dramatic courtroom scenes, complete with gavels and heated cross-examinations.

"This isn't just about history," explained teacher Mr. Wendell. "It's about seeing how justice, persuasion, and truth play out in today's world." As visitors left, many remarked how the showcase didn't just display work—it made them rethink their own assumptions.
