Hey KIDS and families! NED’s Resiliency Ride is visiting our school! The assembly is filled with storytelling, humor, illusions and amazing yo-yo tricks where our kids learn the hidden message in NED's name: -Never give up -Encourage others -Do your best® Our school received this assembly at no-cost because another school paid-it-forward to us. We want to help pay-it-forward too, and you can help by purchasing a NED-messaged yo-yo. Our sale dates will be Tuesday, November 19th through Tuesday, December 3rd. The flyer is attached. You do not need to return the flyer to school in order to purchase- we will have the yo-yos for sale during lunch recess time and during library time if possible. As with every NED show time- we provide Each and Every student a school Yo-Yo. Purchase is not required!! https://5il.co/31cdz
