High school can be completed by crawling, walking or running. The pace is an individual decision that many times dictates the entire future of those involved.

Develop the skills necessary to be more successful in the “race to the finish”.

Americas Got Talent
Every school is diverse and unique in its own way. Both teachers and students need to be responsive to individual ethic groups cultural values, practices, languages, and other aspects of their cultural values. Stereotyping, prejudice and discrimination can quickly destroy a healthy school environment.
Cultural awareness and diversity are becoming increasingly a part of the total educational process. In this fast moving assembly, I show through interaction and lecture how:
All students need to feel a strong sense of belonging
All students need to learn how to interact respectfully with others
All students need to learn to understand and appreciate diversity
During the program, cultural awareness is examined and mini skits are utilized to show how different perceptions affect the outcome of any situation.
Besides Red Ribbon Week and alcohol awareness month, these programs are also excellent for homecoming events, fundraising activities, and prior to prom and testing time periods.
