Government and politics students take advantage of global conference in New York
Students with the Sachem North Model United Nations Club participated in the National High School Model United Nations international conference in March.
Accompanied by advisor Dr. Afxendiou and chaperoned by Mrs. Marcazzo-Skarka they joined thousands of other students at the New York Midtown Hilton for a weekend of debates and discussions.
Delegates from schools around the world come to New York City for a unique conference hosted by the International Model United Nations Association.
This year, Sachem’s delegation represented the nation of Jordan. On the first day, they met with Mrs. Samar Sukkar, one of six delegates representing the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in the United Nations, for a question and answer session.
Students also have the opportunity to visit the United Nations for the opening ceremony which was held in the General Assembly Hall.
