On April 12, 2018, Mount Saint Mary Academy dedicated its Model UN classroom in memory of our Amanda. Amanda’s passion for Model UN began at the Mount and grew through her college years, where she worked on the development of international Model UN programs for high school students. After college, in her TFA and Fulbright positions, she brought Model UN to her students in Chicago and Madrid.
To go along with this honor and dedication by Mount St. Mary’s, the Foundation and the Laura family have established the Amanda Rose Laura Model UN Scholarship to pay for two under-privileged students to attend the annual Model UN competition in Washington D.C. each year.
