    We have had 20 successful years of MUN at Highland Park Sr. Our events include fall, winter, and spring conferences.

    We also travel to conferences in Chicago and New York City depending on availability and scheduling!

    Model United Nations, also called MUN, is an educational simulation/academic activity in which students learn about diplomacy, international relations, leadership, critical thinking, speaking skills, teamwork and the U.N.  MUN engages students and helps them develop a deeper understanding of current world issues and international mindedness. Participants in MUN conferences, known as delegates, choose a committee and a country to represent. Delegates conduct research before conferences and write a short position paper which includes their ideas for global solutions to global challenges.  At the end of a conference, the best-performing delegates in several categories are recognized with awards. MUN team prepares students for conferences and other local events.
