Happening in Fulton: Bang the Gavel: Midtown High Students Experience Fulton County Court System

September 12, 2025

Students from Atlanta's Midtown High School got an inside look at Fulton County's justice system during Magistrate Court's Bang the Gavel program. The high schoolers got to meet District 4 Commissioner Mo Ivory, who is also an attorney and a law professor. Hear more from District 4 Commissioner Mo Ivory. I want them to be exposed to every single thing they can be exposed to. These are the opportunities that can change kids' trajectory and changes their vision of what they can be. I want them to get into every single program that we offer in Fulton County just so they can be better prepared for the world. This means more to me than almost any role I play. To make sure that I'm giving something to the youth and that they get something that they can take with them, and they can believe that they can be whatever they want to be. Yeah, go be great. Fulton County is here for you.
