Community Service Opportunities

Teen Court Logo Contest

Do you love art, design, or just being creative? Here’s your chance to leave your mark!

The Clerk of Circuit Court & Comptroller's office is hosting a Logo Contest to create the official design for the Teen Court Program—and they want YOUR ideas. This initiative not only highlights the creativity of our community but also emphasizes the values of fairness, responsibility, and youth leadership that Teen Court represents. This logo will be used on flyers, t-shirts, and more.

What is Teen Court?

Teen Court is a diversion program where teen volunteers can earn community service hours and hear real cases of non-violent, first-time juvenile offenders. Referrals are sent to Teen Court from law enforcement, school officials, or parents. The jury hears cases, deliberates with peers, and gives appropriate sanctions.

Youth can serve as:

-Jurors

-Attorneys

-Clerks

-Bailiffs

Contest Details:

Students have multiple options under Florida law to earn a high school diploma. Most students at Interlachen Jr.-Sr. High School earn the standard 24 credit or 18 credit diploma. Students entering in 9th grade are placed on the 24 credit diploma track and select classes toward that diploma. Students may at any time choose to move to the 18 credit diploma and should meet with their school counselor if they wish to change to that track.
