What is law-related education? Law related education involves teaching students about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. It provides students K-12 with active learning opportunities that foster their understanding of the role of law in a democratic society. Students learn about laws and the legal system and how it affects their lives. LRE also stresses the use of outside resource people and the application of LRE to real life situations. What are the benefits of law-related education? LRE improves critical thinking, analytical and problem solving skills. Students are actively engaged in the learning process. LRE encourages students to respect laws, rules and persons in authority when exposed to a balanced view of our democratic society. LRE can aid in reducing discipline problems in schools. Students learn positive ways to resolve conflict. Students are exposed to members of the legal community in positive ways. Students involved in LRE are less likely to become delinquent LRE promotes positive self-image in students.

Because law is basic to our everyday lives, LRE Week allows us to reflect on the importance of those legal principles that underlie our government and recognize how almost everything we do is regulated or affected by law. Because learning about law is important, and LRE Week provides an opportunity to: learn something about basic rights and responsibilities as citizens, consumers, drivers, etc. acquire knowledge of the procedures of law and the consequences of our actions become familiar with the workings of our democracy. Because schools can highlight LRE class activities and use the Week to initiate or expand school LRE programs. Because it provides a special opportunity to bring the legal community and judiciary, educators, and students together in activities that promote mutual knowledge and understanding.
