Model UN
Sponsors: Ms. Frances Galante, Ms. Sue Dodd
The Model UN is an organization that promotes international awareness and peaceful conflict resolution by giving students the opportunity to participate in conferences held at various universities and high schools. It simulates the United Nations, where delegates engage in research of historical and current international issues, write proposals, resolve conflicts, and engage in debates with fellow conference attendees. Not only do students gain memorable experiences, they can gain knowledge in the areas of history, geography,culture, economics and science, which supplement the school curricula,providing them with a well-rounded education.
