BY: M. of A. Conrad

 CONGRATULATING the Kenmore East High School Model
 United Nations Team upon the occasion of winning the
 WNY Model UN General Assembly competition on March
 17, 2026

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize and
commend those exemplary educational institutions and students whose
achievements bring pride and distinction to their schools and
communities; and

 WHEREAS, Kenmore East High School has once again distinguished
itself through academic excellence and civic engagement by earning the
highest honor, Best Overall Delegation, at the Western New York Model
United Nations General Assembly competition on Tuesday, March 17, 2026;
and

 WHEREAS, This remarkable victory marks the 20th time that Kenmore
East High School has achieved this prestigious distinction since 2002, a
testament to the program's enduring tradition of excellence; and

 WHEREAS, The 2026 competition was among the largest in Western New
York history, featuring nearly 900 students representing 76 delegations
from 47 schools, each simulating the work of the United Nations through
rigorous debate and diplomacy; and

 WHEREAS, Representing the nation of Belgium, the Kenmore East
delegation demonstrated exceptional knowledge of global issues,
parliamentary procedure, and international policy, excelling in debate
and collaboration across multiple committees; and

 WHEREAS, In addition to being named Best Overall Delegation, Kenmore
East students earned first-place honors in the Social, Cultural &
Humanitarian Committee, the Political & Security Committee, and the Ad
Hoc Political & Security Committee; and

 WHEREAS, The team's continued success is a reflection of the
dedication, perseverance, and intellectual curiosity of its students,
who rose to the challenge of maintaining a legacy of excellence under
significant expectations; and

 WHEREAS, The team was expertly led by social studies teacher and
advisor Christopher Knab, whose commitment to his students and passion
for civic education have guided the program to extraordinary heights
over many years, and whose retirement at the conclusion of this school
year marks the end of a distinguished and impactful career; and

 WHEREAS, The accomplishments of the Kenmore East Model United
Nations Team are further enriched by the contributions of its student
members, including team captain Logan Fey, as well as Julia Crawford,

 WHEREAS, Through their participation in Model United Nations, these
students have demonstrated the highest ideals of scholarship,
leadership, and global citizenship, preparing themselves to be
thoughtful and engaged members of society; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor the Kenmore East High School Model United Nations Team upon the
occasion of winning the WNY Model UN General Assembly competition on
March 17, 2026; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That copies of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to the aforementioned members of the Kenmore East High
School Model United Nations Team and Advisor Christopher Knab.
