Student Clubs
Clubs should plan to meet at a minimum of once monthly and will have a written, meaningful and measurable goal/s to complete for the school year. An evaluation form will be completed at the end of the School year. An exciting calendar of events is located on the School’s Master Calendar reflecting upcoming activities and events (i.e. Homecoming, days of service, etc.).

Model United Nations
The mission of Palmer Trinity School’s Model United Nations Program is to foster awareness and understanding of current global issues by having student delegates identify and confront significant challenges facing the world today. Model UN encourages students to engage in debate and achieve a compromise, leading to the crafting of innovative resolutions to tackle these international problems.
Above all, the PTS Model UN Program is a transformative learning experience that challenges student delegates to immerse themselves in the policies of the nations they represent and ultimately gain tremendous empathy throughout this process. This is a critical trait to develop in the field of international relations making successful diplomacy possible.
If you are interested in joining PTS Model United Nations, please contact Mr. Derek Smith or Ms. Susi Cetta.
The PTS Model UN Program serves as a pillar among the school’s many international initiatives, helping to develop our students into global citizens.
The PTS Model United Nations program was revived in 2016 and since then it has become the largest growing student organization on campus with over 150 delegates as of 2025. The MUN program travels to conferences locally, nationally and around the world including to American University, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, William and Mary, PANAMUN Panama, CISSMUN China, IMUN Portugal, CHEMUN India and THIMUN Netherlands.
Additionally, in 2018 PTS hosted its first Miami Model United Nations Conference (MIAMUN) and has continued to be held annually every spring since its inception welcoming various local schools including St. Andrew's, St. Thomas Aquinas, Carrollton, Westminster Christian, Columbus and Ransom Everglades. 2025 marked the eighth annual MIAMUN VIII Conference that was attended by over 175 delegates and committee chairs. In recent years Middle School students have been invited to participate in MIAMUN, creating a pipeline of diplomacy that runs through both divisions of the school.
Model United Nations is an extracurricular activity in which students take on the role of actual delegates from the United Nations and engage in committees and debates which seek to find solutions to real-world problems. Model United Nations promotes and seeks to encourage civilized debates and disagreements while focusing on finding peaceful solutions and resolutions, all in a fun and engaging way.
