Criminal Justice Class Information

See our full course description and additional information such as required supplies on our website.

The study of criminal justice encompasses an exploration of laws, law enforcement agencies, corrections and rehabilitation, and the judicial system. This course will delve into these key areas, along with the history and philosophy of criminal justice. Students will investigate the nature and extent of crime in the U.S., examining its impacts and consequences. Given that the unbiased application of the rule of law is crucial for achieving true justice, we will analyze the development, concepts, and functions of law within the criminal justice system. Fundamental principles of policing and law enforcement will also be explored, alongside topics such as juvenile justice and terrorism. Additionally, a Biblically-based framework for understanding criminal justice will be developed and discussed.

Please note that students intending to study for dual credit will have to enroll with LeTourneau University and pay their associated tuition and fees. 

Teacher: Mrs. Ann LeBlanc
