Model U.N. is an official class with students receiving a grade and full credit towards graduation. There are homework assignments to be completed, tests to be taken, and research to be done. We use several local libraries, including our own extensive resources for researching. On Friday mornings we meet to simulate the Security Council in order to improve our debating skills. Since 1991, Jefferson has held their own Model United Nations Conference.
Local schools attend, and everyone leaves with a better understanding of how to debate.
