Water Main Break / Wasserrohrbruch
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5, 2025
Our school has experienced water damage due to a water main break in the neighborhood. Preschool, SEL, and grades 5–12 are operating as usual.
IMPORTANT: The elementary school building is currently being restored to a usable condition; therefore, we are unfortunately unable to offer regular classes or supervision for grades 1–4.
Please keep your children in grades 1 to 4 at home on Friday, December 5.
The Newbees canceled the Newbees Breakfast.
We are closely monitoring the MCPS decision for Friday in case they announce a delayed start due to the weather.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Aufgrund eines Wasserrohrbruchs in der Nachbarschaft ist es zu einem Wasserschaden an unserer Schule gekommen ist. Der Kidnergarten, SES sowie die Klassen 5–12 haben regulären Unterricht.
WICHTIG: Das Grundschulgebäude wird derzeit in einen nutzbaren Zustand gebracht, daher können wir für die Klassen 1–4 leider keinen regulären Unterricht und auch keine Betreuung anbieten.
Bitte behalten Sie Ihre Kinder der Klassen 1 bis 4 am Freitag, den 5. Dezember zu Hause.
Die NewBees haben das Newbees-Frühstück abgesagt.
Wir behalten die Entscheidung von MCPS für Freitag im Blick, falls aufgrund des Wetters ein verspäteter Schulbeginn angekündigt wird.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Verständnis und Ihre Unterstützung.
Model United Nations
Introduction to the Model United Nations
- The Model UN is a simulation of the United Nations.
- Students assume the roles of “ambassadors” to the United Nations.
- They debate current issues on the UN’s agenda.
- Through diplomacy and negotiation, delegates seek ways for the world community to deal with complex global concerns such as conflicts, disarmament, human rights, refugees, AIDS, the environment, and economic development.
- The goal is to build and reach a consensus in resolving global problems.
Three Components of Model UN Activities
1. Preparation
Research/Study:
- the United Nations system and its work
- the profile of the country represented
- the issues or subjects on the agenda
- the position of the assigned country on the issues
2. Participation
- Apply the information by participating in a Model United Nations conference.
- Represent the assigned country and work together with representatives of other countries to develop a resolution by making speeches, negotiating in formal and informal meetings, following rules of procedure, and reaching a consensus.
3. Evaluation
- of the country’s accomplishments
- of the simulation’s accuracy
- of the personal experience
