Mission Statement
The Grady Mock Trial Foundation is a 501(c)(3) whose mission is to enhance and expand the mock trial experience for all public high school students. The Foundation was organized in 2011 to benefit high school students beyond Grady through community outreach efforts, coach and student workshops, and an annual Invitational. The Foundation also helps support additional Invitational experiences for the Grady team, so as to allow all students the opportunity to compete each year, despite the 12-student limit for the Georgia High School Mock Trial competition season.
About This Cause
The Grady Mock Trial Foundation benefits Georgia high school students through community outreach efforts, coach and student workshops, and an annual Invitational that provides additional experience for Georgia high school mock trial teams who do not make it past the Regional level of competition. The Foundation also helps defray some of the costs borne by Grady students and their families for additional Invitational competition experiences, outside of the Georgia High School Mock Trial season. The Foundation puts on the Grady Gavel Gala every other year as it's major fundraiser and to honor members of the community who have played a special role with our students or the mock trial community as a whole. In 2011, we honored long-time Grady mock trial's head attorney coach, Carl Gebo, who has coached the team for 24+ years. In 2014, we honored former Grady mock trial teacher-coach Brian Leahy, and teachers Jeff Cramer and Kate Carter for their support of Grady mock trial. In 2016, we honored former Georgia Supreme Court Justice George Carley, a founding father and long-time supporter of Georgia High School mock trial, and Dr. Vincent Murray, who served as principal of Grady High School for 23 years. Grady mock trial is an all-volunteer program that provides valuable educational opportunities for students and continues to merit praise for the Atlanta Public School System. All programs and opportunities provided by the Grady Mock Trial Foundation are volunteer-run and made possible by the financial support of our family, friends, and corporate neighbors.
