Eight hundred-fifty students, from grades eight to twelve, are participating in this year's program. Students join one of the House, Senate, Supreme Court, Court of Appeals, Administrative Cabinet or the Executive Branch model groups. They spend weeks studying the functions of each branch of government. It ·all comes together during the weekend at the Capitol, the final performance of their roles. Here, young legislators present their bills to peers who, in turn, point out flaws and make recommendations. Youthful judges hear prosecution and defense lawyers in court cases. New to the program, eighth grade students work as pages and decide what they would like to do next year. Ambitious lobbyists converse with legislators. The model press corps plays their newscast tape every day on closed circuit television. The students close th~ir session Sunday, and then participate in a major cleanup of the Capitol.
