McGinn School is BETTER THAN THAT™

McGinn SchoolToday we visited the McGinn School, in Scotch Plains, New Jersey, where we presented two HERO assembly programs to their K-2 grade and 3-4th grade students.

The faculty and students of McGinn were so engrossed in our Hero videos that you could hear a pin drop in the room. They immediately began using the super hero strategies we taught during our program. At the end of our assembly, all stood up, in their best super hero pose, and cheered, “I will be a hero!”

After our first show, one second grader stepped out of his class line with an important message for his principal. He stopped and said, “Thank you SO much for bringing this assembly to our school.” The principal told us she has never had a student go out of his way to thank her for such a wonderful assembly. We are so honored that you loved our program!

McGinn SchoolAs we approach the end of the Week of Respect, we remind you that you can be a HERO to someone every day, not just during one week in October. We encourage you to stand up for others, to choose to do the right thing, and to be BETTER THAN THAT™ – better than poor choices, better than others who are not being heroic, and better than what’s not right.

BE A HERO! We believe in you and are counting on you to stand up and choose kindness!

Super Heroes in Roselle!

Harrison School, Roselle, New JerseyWe had the pleasure of hosting our second HERO assembly for the Week of Respect at Harrison School, in Roselle, New Jersey. The students and staff at Harrison School wore their very own super hero capes, shirts, and accessories to welcome us and our program.

Our program was filled with energy and excitement. All students chanted, “Heroes always help!” throughout our program. They were engaged in our role play and video segments. There were lots of cheers, hoots, and laughter heard from students throughout our entire show.

One third grader came to us after the show and stated, “You’re right. You CAN wear an invisible cape and still be a hero! I get it!” We are so grateful to that boy, and all the students whom we visit for understanding and spreading our mission of kindness.

Week of Respect Assembly

Wear The CapeToday we presented our first HERO assembly for the Week of Respect 2019. Wear The Cape Visited Lawrenceville Elementary School, in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. We were greeted with lots of smiles and high fives from the LES students and staff. During our program, students were able to identify the many ways that they can be a hero by being BETTER THAN THAT(tm) and vowing to Wear The Cape every day, both in school and outside of school.Wear the Cape

Students chanted, “Heroes always help,” while they all sported their very own super hero poses. They participated in exciting role plays, and were touched by our Cape Kids showing how they Wear The Cape, in our Cape Kid video segments.

Ms. Melissa Wall, LES school counselor, was a hero to her staff and students when she wrote and won a grant to bring Wear The Cape to her school. “I am so excited to have your program at our school!” she exclaimed when we first spoke. We are honored that Ms. Wall chose our program to use for her grant!

We thank you, Ms. Wall, and all the staff and students at Lawrenceville Elementary School, for allowing us to bring our HERO assembly to you as the first assembly of the 2019 Week of Respect.
