ELLICOTTVILLE — Many of Cattaraugus County’s future leaders were recognized Monday night at the annual Cattaraugus County Youth Bureau Youth Citizenship Awards banquet.
OLEAN â The Olean High School Model United Nations team participated last month in a virtual conference hosted by Canisius College.
Twelve members of the OHS team served as delegates and competed against students from 12 Buffalo-area high schools. These students researched a real-world issue and its possible solutions in order write about and then debate the topic.
Canisius organizers selected students from each of the four councils to recognize for their performance.
Olean High School senior Nate Kwiatkowski earned Best Delegate honors as a member of the Contemporary Security Council, and David Ruszkowski, a freshman, earned the award for Outstanding Delegate in the Historic Security Council.
