After an invitation by Jake Wallin, Gilbert student council representative, Judge Bryant Henry visited Gilbert Elementary and discussed his role as juvenile court judge with our students during the morning news program. The student council members asked Judge Henry several good questions. One student wanted to know if he had always wanted to be a judge. Mr. Henry responded that it was not until he was in college that he had decided to go into law. He practiced law from 1974 until 1997, and after sitting in as judge on several cases he decided that this was the career for him. He later spoke with principal Michael Tipton and assistant principal Brad Hayes as they thanked him for taking time out of his busy schedule to visit our students.
