Senior Edition
Overall: Kathryn Blau
Kathryn not only excels in the classroom and beyond with many activities she participates in, but one of her most important highlights of responsibility is single-handedly running Model UN as the founder and president of the organization. This year she increased student membership to 17 students and does a great job ensuring productive meetings prepping for competition. Kathryn is the epitome of a responsible student.
