UthMpact hosted its graduation ceremony for high school student leaders who successfully completed the 2024-2025 UthMpact Leadership Class XIV program on April 8 at Bartow Civic Center. Nearly 510 students representing every high school in the county have been enriched by being a member of the Leadership Program, which is spearheaded by InnerAct Alliance, StandUP Polk, UthMpact, and key business and community partners to assist teens in developing crucial leadership skills.
Participants complete a retreat and personality training and travel throughout the county on monthly Leadership Days to meet with community leaders and experience the inner workings of local volunteerism, business, government, healthcare, education, and local law enforcement. Students participate in dozens of unique events and volunteer opportunities.
Each year, two seniors who embody the mission and leadership qualities of UthMpact were awarded $500 scholarships. Congratulations to the 2025 UthMpact Scholarship recipients Katie Narramore and Nick Barrios!
Candidates for the 2025 Leadership Class XV have been chosen based on their scholastic and leadership experience and their names will be announced soon. For more information about UthMpact, contact Samantha Barwig at 802-0777.
