The criminal justice students practice in a drill.
Criminal Justice class gets rolling
While most of us roam the halls between periods and worry about our individual classes, Mr. Hatke’s Criminal Justice classes, which include students from Delphi, Twin Lakes, and Frontier, are getting into the logistics of law enforcement tactics and criminal investigations. However, he’s not teaching them with textbooks.
“We are doing [a scenario] every other or every third day,” explained Mr. Hatke. In one class, students are learning how to properly fingerprint suspects. In the other, students are learning how to approach vehicles that are pulled over and how to properly get the driver’s information, such as their name and age.
