Rod Serling, writer and host of the fabled Twilight Zone television series, once observed that "Every writer is a frustrated actor who recites his lines in the hidden auditorium of his skull".
As this school years winds down we keep receiving cards back from client schools telling us how much they enjoy our awesome school shows. It is hard not to let it go to our heads a little. But when you work as hard as we do at providing schools with totally amazing educational assembly programs, to have that work recognized is a wonderful feeling.
Every so often we like to blow our own horn. Who doesn't? And I wanted to quickly share these short reviews we recently received following a couple of programs in different locations.
A mere two weeks ago we announced our newest school assembly program, The STEM Museum. We must have touched a nerve. Already the tour for the 2013-2014 school year is experiencing overwhelming demand. In fact this awesome new school show is getting close to being sold out in the Midwest and East and West coast dates are close behind. Only a few dates remain available for Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky and Illinois. In some states we have only one or no dates left at all.
And small wonder.
In case you have been living under a rock, the most important new initiative in education is the focus on STEM. No, this isn't about stem cells, or plants. S.T.E.M. Is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. A large majority of future careers are projected to fall within these four categories and the race is on to prepare our young people for an exciting new world.
In our continuing series, a Mobile Ed Guide to School Assemblies, we offer assistance to you, the parent, who has been given the unsung task of selecting and arranging shows for the children at your school. And, in this series, we attempt to answer all the questions you may have or may not have even considered yet as you approach this job.
