It can be quiet a change from the norm when you are the one responsible for planning your next school assembly. There are a few basic things to remember when planning your next school assembly. It is our goal to help you pull off a flawless and successful assembly. Here are a few helpful pointers to remember.

Keep everyone informed at your School Assembly

Be sure in all your planning that you keep all your staff informed about the upcoming event. There have been many times upon arrival, that it was a fun surprise. Having to scramble and rush around is no fun for anyone. Sending out reminders to teachers, and janitors is always helpful. Also...keeping the students reminded of the excitement to come can build an eagerness in their spirits. There will already be a sort of connection when your speaker arrives if they have been excited for the school assembly all week long. Letting them know you are excited about it, will create excitement in them. Tell them who is coming, and what to expect.

Timing is Everything in your School Assembly

It is vital to plan out and correspond with your speaker on what time is available for them. It’s important that you account for the entrance and exit of your students. It can really change the overall impact of a message if your speaker has to cut it short because there is no more time. Be specific form the beginning about the time that is available to your speaker. They will appreciate the upfront planning.

Get Teachers Involved

It can make a real impact on your students to see that their teachers are interested in the program, and in their well being. Remember, it is the speakers' goal to impact and challenge your students for self-improvement. Teachers will see students who may be hurting, and be able to follow up after the speaker is gone. Potentially, changing a young heart forever.

Choose a Relevant Speaker

All of the above ring true, but choosing a speaker that is relevant for your group is the real game changer. Choose a speaker for your school assembly that will change the culture of your students in a positive way. They should keep your students both entertained and open to be challenged.
