Congratulations Liam!

Mr. V's Legal Systems class had a presenter (Jason March) from the Butte County Sheriff's office. The students were able to ask questions about his line of work and the legal proceedings they were taught in class. Deputy March passed around his vest for everyone to feel the weight. Mr. V was the model for the class.

Go Lady Irrigators!
