About Law Academies<br />
Law & Justice Academies help students<br />
excel academically, prepare<br />
for college, and explore careers in<br />
the legal field. Students receive exposure<br />
to the legal profession and<br />
develop the skills and knowledge<br />
needed to embark on advanced<br />
professional and academic careers.<br />
Department of Education<br />
reports show that academy students<br />
have significantly higher<br />
graduation rates and scores. Additionally,<br />
the academy model helps<br />
more students meet UC admission<br />
requirements.<br />
