Model UN
Model United Nations (Model UN or MUN) is a simulation of the United Nations where students take on the roles of delegates representing different countries. They research global issues, write position papers, debate, and work together to draft resolutions—just like real UN diplomats. It helps students build skills in public speaking, collaboration, critical thinking, and global awareness.

Math Team
In Math Team, we tinker with math ideas outside of the curriculum like graph theory, symbolic logic, linear algebra, and other things outside the curriculum. We watch neat TED talks, or Numberfile, or 3 Blue, 1 Brown, etc. We also compete in county math meets that meet every other week on Wednesdays after school. Meets run October to February. Not everyone needs to attend meets.
