2019 Grade 9 & 10 Student Showcase
On Wednesday, June 5th 2019, we held our third annual Student Showcase!
Our 9th graders created marketing/advertising campaigns for Merit, including a 60-second commercial and print-ad. Each of the five teams pitched their campaigns in front of the audience and a panel of judges for one team to claim a victory! This year’s winning team was “Weaves ‘n’ Waves” with their “One Merit” Campaign!
The 10th graders designed Merit product collections and attendees had a chance to pre-order at the event. The team with the most pre-orders after 2 weeks of sales (at the event and online) was crowned the winning team, and their collection will be produced in full! This year’s winning team was Excellent 6 with their “Encouraging a Culture of Uniqueness” collection. These items, including the top 7 products outside of the winning collection, can be purchased at meritgoodness.com.
Every year we continue to be blown away by each student’s courage, enthusiasm, and delivery and the Student Showcase is hands down one of our favorite events EVER! You can read the full story + watch the commercials, see the print ads, and view the product collections here.
