Malden Students Recognized at Mock UN Debate

Great showing at Northeastern from some local kids!

Students from across Malden this month participated in a United Nations-style debate on the topic of food security, some even being honored for having the "best delegation!"

Forestdale students Jessica Gavin and Vanessa Ardai won the award, while many others Malden students were recognized.

The Forestdale, Malden High, Salewood, Ferrway, and the Linden STEAM Academy each sent five students, who were then paired up to represent a different country. The students were tasked with working together to come up with solutions.
