Founded by 2017 alumni Sara Holley, TEDxEastMecklenburgHighSchool is an invite-only annual conference that encourages spreading ideas about technology, engineering, and designs modeled after famous TED talks. At East Mecklenburg, we offer a variety of talks ranging from Hanna Wondmagegn's "How a food can feed a community" to Ecab Amor's "Tearing down the walls that prevent us from greatness". TEDx allows the opportunity to allow young artists and soaring eagles to express themselves through their art, performances, and talents.
