Spotlight on Students!

Congrats, Juliana!


Juliana, G10, received a scholarship to attend the Harvard Model Congress Asia and WON AWARDS this past weekend! Applicants had to submit a 3-minute video essay  about a topic in their country, 3 short essays and a recommendation letter from one of their current teachers.


Juliana is one of the senior trainers for the HopeMUN club. The club registered 5 delegates for either the Yale Model United Nations or HMCA in mid January 2022.


Her committee was the International Parliament under the Domestic Programs. Her awards:

1. She won Honorable Mention in HMCA 2022

2. Her resolution on Powering Japan Act (Nuclear Option) was adopted by the Executive Board of HMCA 2022.


The countries in HMCA 2022 were countries in Asia and the Pacific (because a high school in Guam participated). 


She was also a scholar, which means registration fee for both Hope school and Juliana was waived! To be a scholar, you must also submit submit a video essay, a recommendation letter from a teacher and answer 5 essay questions set by the HMCA committee.
