Madison #1

On Friday I was invited by the 8th grade staff of Madison #1 Middle School to speak to and entertain their eighth grade class. The school is located in Phoenix, Arizona. Friday was the last day of school. It was a half -day for the students and teachers really didn't know how many kids to expect.

Over 170 kids showed up for the last day and my program. It was 2.5 hours of fun. The program was held in the school library and it didn't look like much of a library after we were done.

The program "Good Luck In High School" was over two hours worth of games and some lecturing on what will make the students successful in High School and in Life. Prizes were given out to the students and I gave them little cards containing my "Good Luck 7." The "Good Luck 7" are 7 tips to success. The list is below.

1. Success comes from Hard WORK!
2. Have the right Attitude
3. A.S.K Questions (Always Seek Knowledge)
4. Develop your own Identity
5. Make strong and healthy relationships
6. Help each other (Help others)
7. Learn new Stuff
