Keeping up with cool...at school

Joe Luca and Lenore Luca from

Keeping Up With Cool

came to my school last week and talked to my 8th grade class.

They shared stories of when they were young.

 

 

Lenore wanted to be an actress and went on audition after audition and couldn't get a part.  Her younger brother Joe went on one audition and got the part! It was funny when she told how mad it made her that he got a part before her.

But she didn't give up. She kept on auditioning until she got something.

 

 

Then Joe told the story of how he had always wanted to be a college gymnast and when he was in high school he hurt his leg.  He was told he shouldn't do gymnastics anymore. But he wouldn't take no for an answer. He worked hard at physical therapy and strengthened his leg and now is on the gymnastic team at Temple University.

He didn't give up. He proved it to us by doing an impressive back flip.

 

They interacted with some of my classmates and gave tips on how to build confidence, achieve happiness and be a leader.

They encouraged us live our dreams and be the best we can be.

Everyone said it was a lot of fun having Joe and Lenore at our school and that it was the best assembly we have ever had!



You can have Joe and Lenore come speak at your school, too!  Have your principal or guidance counselor contact Bridget@BridgetObrienPRandEvents.com or visit their website http://www.KeepingUpWithCool.tv/
