Two IMS students brought home medals from this year’s FCCLA STAR Event Competition at the State Leadership Conference in Des Moines. Senior Danny Peterson received a silver medal in the Illustrated Talk event for his presentation, “Touched by Adoption.” Jessica Hill received a gold medal in the Recycle and Redesign event for her project, “Jessica’s Redesign, One Fabric at a Time.” Jessica was awarded “State Champion” for receiving the highest score in her event, and now advances to the national competition in Chicago, July 4th through the 8th. STAR Events, or Students Taking Action with Recognition, are competitive events that build proficiency and achievement in leadership and job-related skills.
