Our school assembly programs are:
Our programs are primarily designed to motivate youth of all ages to reach their potential, both inside and outside of the classroom. Our programs focus on inspiring students to ” SEE” their potential and live for the future, not just for the moment. Vision is the key.
Our athletes use their own personal stories of life, academic struggles, and family challenges that they have experienced during their youth, to demonstrate to their audience that ‘you don’t have to be great to get started, you just have to get started to be great’ and that ‘readers really do become leaders’.
They use their academic success to show students that education increases their opportunities to succeed. Students are left with the lasting thought that, ‘You can have more if you don’t settle for less’.
For the high school audiences, the speakers touch on boyfriend/girlfriend relationships. They challenge students to build their relationships on the “front seat of respect, not the back seat of disgrace”.
We have found when students listen to wrong voices, they often make wrong choices. So, our speakers encourage each student to “hang out with dream makers not dream breakers”.
Each player uses their platform as a former college or professional athlete to let students know that they “don’t have to be a world class athlete, just be a world class person ” to succeed in life.
The attention of the students is captured by an incredible display of energy , strength, music, participation, interaction, Humor , and fun . Creating a thrilling atmosphere and a lasting impression on each and every student.
No student or adult will be able to sleep through this program
