The goal of Have Gavel Will Travel is to have as many of our jurists as possible – active and retired justices, judges and magistrates – make regular appearances in West Virginia schools. Judicial officers will volunteer to participate in Read Aloud programs in elementary schools and join a new speaker's bureau to talk to elementary, middle and high school classes about the judicial system.
Class time is precious and many demands are put on teachers. The Court hopes these programs will enhance, not reduce, instructional time.
Speakers List
A Speakers List has been created by the Supreme Court Public Information Office. The list provides which judicial officers are willing to speak and provides their contact information. You can contact them directly of call Jennifer Bundy or April Harless to help with setting up a school visit.
