The Projects

On Thursday, January 29, MIA will welcome prospective students and their families for an enrollment night featuring campus tours and information about the school.

In preparation for the event, students in Mr. Scalia’s AICE English Language classes were tasked with creating an advertisement campaign to highlight what MIA has to offer. Through posters and videos, students worked to present the school in a compelling and informative way.

Many of the projects highlighted MIA’s strengths, including its championship athletic teams, student-led clubs, and its A-rated designation by the Florida Department of Education, while also incorporating visuals that reflected daily life at MIA.

In all, the campaigns aimed to provide upcoming families with an authentic, engaging glimpse of the MIA experience. While strategically including the form and structure that the students have focusing on.
