Yes You Can PTO Assembly (New)
On behalf of Ivy Hall Elementary School I would like to thank the cultural arts committee for securing a fantastic first assembly for our Ivy Hall Wildcats this year. Lloyd Bachrach came to Ivy Hall Elementary School on the morning of October 25, 2018. Students saw demonstrations, heard personal stories of triumph and received some great motivational tips.
Lloyd faced a huge uphill battle from the day he was born. Lloyd was born differently abled, with limited use of his legs. He turned his challenge into a strength, first by excelling in a variety of sports, then taking his confidence and insight to others seeking a positive message and life strategy.
As a motivational speaker, he has been wowing people aged 6 to 60 for over 13 years with a simple but powerful message: yes, you can!
Check out some pictures and videos from the assembly here.
