Under the leadership of Pranavi Battula, Anvi Sharma, Mihika Sinha, Sahana Puliyadi, Cheryl Justin, and MHHS TEDx Advisor Ms. Jessica Gonzalez, they worked tirelessly to organize this program/support each student’s journey. IIMP offered comprehensive sessions every week that covered essential public speaking techniques, helping students craft their speeches from A to Z. Students received personalized feedback and engaged in interactive presentations that brought their ideas to life across the 2-month program.
The IIMP Showcase held on March 24th drew an enthusiastic crowd of over 100 attendees, including parents, students, and community members. The Showcase brought a celebratory atmosphere with food trucks, an introductory speech given by Pranavi Battula (President of MHHS TEDx), Ms. Jessica Gonzalez (Advisor), and showcased the 28 finalists’ exemplary speeches from 4-8:30 pm. The event highlighted the dedication of all participants, as well as concluded with the selection of 4 top winners representing IIMP, who will present at the TEDxMountainHouseHS Conference in October 2025, received an extra certificate. All 28 finalists received an engraved trophy and 1 certificate.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to the officer team, parents, students, high-school volunteers, and photographer Hadi Zain who made this initiative possible.
