"This program was easily scheduled, they kept to their time-line, the message was positive and appropriate for a public school and the Team connected beautifully with the students. Students respnoeded especailly well to the message and team members did an excellent job relating the message to learning and to school achievement. With the rigors of the No Child Left Behind laws currently in effect, many schools, Mountain View included, are severly limiting time spent on anything not directly related to student achievement. The Strength Team encourages students to focus on studies, achievement and hard work."

"Mike Hagen's Strength Team provided us with the best assembly of the school year. Our students were thoroughly entertained and yet challenged to set goals for themselves. A nice aspect of this assembly was the presenters ability to match the theme of the presentation to our needs. The Mike Heagan Strength Team would certainly be high on our list for a repeat performance at our school."

"We intended to use your Strength Team motivational assembly as a kick-off for our state required tests. It was a HOME RUN! It was better than I could have expected! I would recommend this program to any school that wanted to raise the effort of students who will be taking mandatory achievement tests. This program fit easily within the time frame of one class period.
What a shot in the arm for our school. Thank You! You brought a first-class experience to KHS. "

"The focus of course was on choices, whether it is related to drug and alcohol or other lifetime situations that may result in a lifetime consequence. I think it was done in such a way that it was easy for students to understand and to relate to without feeling as though someone was pounding them in the face with this information. There is a line whereby students will listen and once that line is crossed of course then they tune you out. The Strength Team did an excellent job of presentation so that students were listening and the majority of the comments that I heard after the assembly were that it was well done."

"The faculty and staff, myself included, thought they did an excellent job in explaining to the students about having dreams/goals and not letting anything step in the way of that, no drugs, inappropriate behaviors (cheating, etc) or friends. We hope to see the Strength Team back at Southside Estates Elementary next year."

Beth Holmes, Principal



"The Strength Team assembly one of the best assemblies we have had in years. They enjoyed the show, but the best part was that they heard what Clarence had to say and some were so compelled to let the administration know that they wanted help. Help to change the road they were traveling down."
Osceola High School - Kissimmee, Florida
Norma Evans-O'Connor, Assistant Principal


"Prior to the visit we were asked if we had a focus for our students as it was related to student character for the year. They developed a program to reinforce our focus. Their message was right on target with our focus. I would recommend them to present to any group. "
