The WHHS Business Department took a field trip to the Bankruptcy Court in New Haven. Several area attorneys and Judge Nevins welcomed them to the 18th floor of the financial building in New Haven to show them the ropes and do a mock hearing about a gentleman who was in serious debt, including credit cards, student loans, and repossession of a car. Students learned about the various types of lawyers and talked about some famous people who have filed for bankruptcy. This all coincides with our Personal Finance Class and how to help students think before they make a purchase.
