St. Andrew's Priory School from Hawaii at the UN during NHSMUN
This reflection piece was provided by Tina Rawlins, the advisor at St. Andrew’s Priory School in Hawaii. I met Tina and co-advisor Sophie Halliday during Fall. They were brand new to Model UN but were determined to prepare their students for the National High School Model United Nations (NHSMUN) conference in New York. After the conference, I wanted to get some of their students’ reflections from the conference so we could share what the experience is like for a newer team going to such a large conference. Judging by the reflections below, it looks like the students had a very successful experience!

NHSMUN takes place in the United Nations Headquarters
Over 3,000 delegates attended the 38th session of the National High School Model United Nations (NHSMUN) conference in New York. Hosted by the International Model United Nations Association (IMUNA), staff from many universities and delegates from schools around the world got to experience a MUN in the UN Headquarters for committee and closing ceremonies.
IMUNA takes pride in the educational experience and focuses on the learning aspect of the conference.
