Performance + Message
C
ary Trivanovich's elementary school assembly program consists of his acclaimed performance mixing pantomime with verbal humor, setting the stage for his message in the second half of the assembly.  For an assembly on character or bullying, the students are surprised to find themselves having a blast from the get-go!  Whether he is presenting to an upper or to a lower grade elementary school assembly, Mr. Trivanovich gears both his performance and his message to their age.  Cary's message is spoken with a personable attitude and is received by children with a natural "pin-drop" respect.

MESSAGE TOPICS
for Elementary Schools

Choose Character Over Bullying
Cary's most popular message speaks to both the bullies and the bullied, and also touches the heart of every student.  As one who was bullied in school, Cary relates with the bullied.  He encourages their self-esteem and gives them helpful and practical advice.  To the bullies, he exposes their desire to be somebody and explains that a lack of character will ultimately result in the opposite.  Cary's message is different with the lower grades than the upper, not only because of the maturity level of the kids, but because little kids bully each other for a completely different reason than the older kids do.  However to both audiences Cary culminates his message with a synopsis of his very positive Peer Leadership message described below.

Peer Leadership
Cary's life was changed by students of his school who demonstrated unselfish leadership.  Likewise, Cary relates how your students can impact the lives of others.  This message focuses on the significance that a student can exemplify to his or her world, simply by being a peer who has such a giving attitude toward others.

 

Excellence/Potential (Upper Grades)
Designed mainly as a reward assembly for Renaissance or academic excellence, this is a short, positive message, which combined with his performance, encourages students about their potential for achievement with the pursuit of excellence.
