The Bar Association of San Francisco, established in 1999 a "Day in Court" Program to conduct tours of the local courthouse, including observation of court and jury trials, for San Francisco schoolchildren. The Day in Court Program has introduced fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth graders from schools throughout San Francisco to the real world of law.
