FSA Model U.N. Team Competed at the United Nations Building in New York

Our Model U.N. team just returned from an awesome trip to New York City!  Beyza Akgun, Aditya Choudhari, Andrew Grigsby, Maria Hagen, J.J. Lu, Erin Machado, Nuri Ozer, Vikram Ruppa-Kasani, Brian Shoffeitt, and Davis Tardif traveled along with Mrs. Bragg and Mr. Stiffler to compete in the Global Classrooms International Middle School Model United Nations Conference.  There were students from all over the world at this competition, included schools from South Korea, Ghana, Italy, Mexico, Panama, Turkey, and many more.  The opening ceremonies were held at the actual United Nations building and students had an amazing time on the trip!  We have not received the full list of awards and recognition yet, but we do know that Davis Tardif and Andrew Grigsby were given the Honorable Mention award for their representation of Sweden in the UN Habitat Committee.  We will be sending out pictures and more information about the trip sometime later this week!  If you see these students, please congratulate them for a job well done!
