Criminal Justice

Fayetteville High School Criminal Justice offers students detailed insight to the American criminal justice system.  Many of the students that take this class are interested in pursuing a career in law or law enforcement.  These classes are beneficial to all, in that it is our obligation as citizens to understand the law and our individual rights.  At some point in our lives, each of us will have contact with the criminal justice system as a juror, witness, minor traffic offender, or possibly as a victim of crime.

Criminal Justice offers three levels: CJ 1 Introduction, CJ 2 Criminology, and CJ 3 Forensics.  Upon successful completion of all three classes, a student may graduate having obtained a concentrator in criminal justice.
