Volunteers are needed from 10:30-12:20

This program is supported by the Miller School administration and the District Wellness Council, and to be successful, the program needs parent/guardian support! This is a fun way to volunteer and get involved with the school community!

THE NED SHOW ASSEMBLY - RESCHEDULED

NED's Mindset Mission Assembly at Miller School has been rescheduled for October 21st! After the show through Oct. 27, we’ll be selling NED’s yo-yos as a fun, tangible reminder of the show’s message.

Learn more: https://hollistonpto.org/the-ned-show

The NED Show Assembly

Sign Up here to help out!

NED's Mindset Mission Assembly is visiting our school this week! NED and our students take a journey to find their positive mindset. The show 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 - understand the Power of YET

Encourage others - spark courage in other people

Do your best - always be learning and growing

After the show, we will be selling yo-yos because a yo-yo is both a mindset tool and a tangible reminder of NED's message. While learning to yo-yo, children will make mistakes, try again, and improve.

Our school received this assembly at no-cost because another school paid-it-forward to us. We want to help pay-it-forward too, by selling NED-messaged yo-yos. Your child will bring home a flyer with more information about purchasing a yo-yo at lunch, but we need YOUR help to be able to sell yo-yos. Please consider signing up to help out during lunch between October 1 & 7, and see all the smiling faces as they get their own yo-yos!

*A current CORI is required to volunteer in school.*
