    The High School Xperience

    So, we (Choices) just had our first full assembly of the year. We had so much fun. We had planned, rehearsed and got ready for the event as much as we could. Two assemblies back to back. Of course, having one first thing in the morning is… well it can be interesting.

    And, it was. Sound was not cooperating and we found out that many of the students had difficulty hearing us. When that happens, they will tune out or start speaking with their friends. And, that happened. Overall though, most of the students stayed tuned in and engaged. We received a ton of positive feedback.

    Some of the not positive feedback shocked us a little bit. I know not everyone would be into the message. Some of it was just because they could not hear. Many of the black students seemed shocked that I was doing rock. That labeling thing. That’s the next assembly.

    Overall, great event and I look forward to the next one. Students that were there from other schools came up to us and requested us at their school. The principal loved it. We have to keep plugging away and doing our best to relate and motivate. Somebody has to…

    Choices helps out Fed Ex at Company Picnic!

    We all thought that it was going to rain and rain hard on Sunday. Thank goodness it didn’t. Yes, it sprinkled a little at first but then the sun came out and it was a beautiful day. At Kiwanis Park in Tempe we, along with Corporate Teamworks hosted a picnic for nearly 300 Fed Ex Employees. It was so much fun. There were a couple of inflatables, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, plenty of food and we brought out two 42 inch screens for the employees to watch Nascar! Many more events to come. For those that want or need inflatables, food, etc contact us and we can make it happen!
