HES hosted an all-school event called NED's Resiliency Ride. We trust your student was encouraged by the show which inspires everyone to become Champions at school and in life!
NED yo-yos will be available for purchase from January 30 - February 5 to support the free show and message. If you need another order form, just let your teacher know.
If you'd like additional resources, they are available here. http://www.thenedshow.com/parents.html
Don’t forget to ask your student what they learned in the show about Never giving up, Encouraging others and Doing your best!
