As part of the required curriculum, each MMI student must make a presentation to a large assembly of his/her peers at least once a year. These presentations may be original stories, parodies, teaching demonstrations, hobby demonstrations, or musical performances.

The purpose of the assembly program is to provide each student with the opportunity to explore varied subject areas not typically studied in the classroom. Students utilize their public speaking skills as they present on their approved topic of interest such as art, music, geography or culture before a larger audience than they would be exposed to in a daily classroom environment. 

"The assembly program promotes communication skills, which are so important in virtually every career today. Most colleges recognize this and require the development of this skill in their curriculum," said MMI President William A. Shergalis, PhD. '58. "MMI students are better prepared for what is expected of them in college by completing the assembly program and enchancing their oral communication skills." 

The best student performances from the assemblies are presented to a joint assembly of both prep and middle school students to determine the "Best of the Best."
