CONGRATULATIONS TO MODEL UN TEAM!

On Friday, November 20th the FSAPS Model UN Team competed in the Centennial High School MiniMUN competition.

It is inspiring to see our students working and behaving like young delegates, showing decorum and following rules of procedure as they debate and propose realistic solutions for some of the major issues facing our world today.

All of our students performed admirably and had a terrific time while learning more about the world and practicing real diplomacy with students from other local teams. I am proud to announce that FSAPS students received recognition in each of the award categories:

United Nations Security Council

Topic: The Situation in Yemen

United States Christina Wang Best Position Paper

Jordan Kian Nijaf Most Improved

United Nations General Assembly Economic and Financial Affairs Council (ECOFIN)

Topic: Eradication of Poverty

United Kingdom Prajwal Vedula Most Diplomatic

India Tushar Koteshwar Most Improved

United Nations General Assembly Social, Humanitarian & Cultural (SOCHUM)

Topic: Ending Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerances

Indonesia Krishna Patel Most Improved

United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)

Topic: Sustainable Energy for All

Paraguay Navina Doss Best Position Paper

United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)

Topic: Wildlife and Forest Crime

Sweden Meghana Raj Best Speaker

The seven awards that FSAPS received during this competition eclipses our previous high, and more importantly provides invaluable experience as we continue on to our next competitions in the spring in which we will travel to Savannah and New York City.

Congratulations to our entire team for their hard work and excellent showing!
