~:[CH12 - Day 131]:~ What a Blessing

It's this time of year that I begin to realize just how Blessed I am. As I wrap up the school year with our MUN program, one of the final events has been receiving the proclamation from the city. It's never a given, but the students I work with put in months of effort in order to make this annual trip successful. As I listened to one of my students address the city council. I was proud at how well spoken he was and was reminded that I am Blessed with such a wonderful group of students. Sometimes, it's hard enough to get teenagers to do their homework or chores around the house, but these students, year after year, put in hours of research, writing, prepping and finally take on all the stress of the conference, truly representing our school, program and city well. One thing I wish I had said before we left the front of the council was, I am truly Blessed to work with the finest minds in this city. In chatting with a councilmember, he mentioned to me just how successful MUN students are, not just at conferences in high school, but in everything they do in their lives beyond. The program truly prepares them for what life throws at them. It's great to see so many of my former MUN students post updates of their success and truly reminds me how important this program is to maintain, as it develops so many successful individuals. How did MUN help you?
