Programs

Our award-winning programs are offered throughout the school year. Students register per season, and cost should never be a reason why a student can’t attend the Model UN Club. Please contact us if you would like to apply for financial assistance.

Because each season builds on skills and knowledge gained from the previous season, we highly recommend participating every season. If your child missed out in an earlier season, we have found that motivated students will still be successful joining later in the year.
