An important message delivered in a positive, fun, and interactive way. Thanks for being an inspiration, Seth! An awesome presentation that kept the student’s attention from beginning to end! Seth Franco was a dynamic presenter who got his message across by his amazing ability to connect with our students. Seth took a familiar message and made it personal by telling his own story. The kids loved it!

Jon was over the top!! My students all spoke about him again today. Some of the students responses were awesome he can break and bend items, was bullied beat up and he worked through it to become a hero! I loved his presentation he didn’t preach he just told stories and the students absorbed the various meanings behind his stories. He was a powerful speaker while engaging all students.

Seth Franco is a dynamic speaker who is able to make a connection with students across all grade levels. His presentation is engaging, pointed, and interactive; certainly something I would like to offer to my students again.

Today we had the privilage of having Seth Franco as a speaker. He was able to capture the attention of our middle schoolers with his very powerful message and his engaging performance. After 17 years as a ParaProfessional in the school system this presentation today was by far the best that I have ever been lucky to witness. Thank you so much!

I just wanted to take some time you thank you for sending Seth Franco to speak to our school today. He did an amazing job and all the students were excited and attentive (which is hard to do with middle school).

Our school just had Jon Pritikin present today. He was amazing! All of our students were focused and engaged from the beginning until the end. He also served as our keynote speaker during our family night event. We had nothing but positive comments all night long!

We just had the assembly with Seth and the students enjoyed it tremendously. I have been a teacher here in Pennsville for the past 35 years and it was at the top of the list. His presentation was great and the message to the kids about bullying was clear. Everyone had a great time!

I just wanted to thank you both for the wonderful presentations you did for us at Triton high school.
Both the students and teachers have told me it was the best, most effective program on bullying that we ever had in the history of assembly programs at our school.
Many thanks and Blessings,

Seth Franco was dynamic! He captured our students from beginning to end. Utilizing his basketball talents, humor, audience participation, and statistics relative to bullying he got across a very important message to our students. Students in grades 9-12 stated “This is one of the best assemblies we have had”!
Elizabeth Petitte
Principal at Highland High School
A student came up to me the day after the Reggie Dabbs presentation. “You said I could always talk to you, right?” Absolutely, I replied. The student then told me about his experience with the presentation. He said he had been praying for help. He had just found out some news at home and his world was crashing down around him. He felt betrayed and not sure if he wanted to trust anyone. “Then this guy came and I listened to him, and I realized there were people around me that cared.” I was able to send him to guidance and get him the help that he needed to make sense of the chaos that was unfolding. I am truly grateful for Mr. Dabbs to have talked that day, because he gave my student hope.

I have surveyed staff and students and the overwhelming majority say that your “Real Relationships” program was probably the best program we have ever had at SLMS. The teachers want you to come back and share with our other grade levels because your story was so compelling and of high interest to our population of middle schoolers.

Seth Franco spoke at my school yesterday, and he was such a pleasure! Not only was he able to appeal to the kids with things as simple as music and sports, but he also was able to get their attention and speak to them about a serious topic! I also thought it was awesome that he was able to use a personal experience/hardship and turn it around into a positive story! What a great experience I know I had and my students had!

Carroll Middle School
Seth and the other guys were awesome. The kids really enjoyed the presentation and were engaged the whole time. After the guys left I asked my class truthfully what they thought and they all really liked it. I asked what his story was about and almost all of them could tell me about Seth’s story in detail. Thank you so much for coming and inspiring our kids.

Seth Franco presented to our Freshman Class this week. His talent was awesome and entertaining. His inspirational message touched our kids in ways that no one has been able. One student shared, “I can’t believe all that man has gone through and he is still successful.” Another said, “I have never met a pro basketball player before! That was cool!”
Sheila Evans
John A Holmes High School
Our students enjoyed Seth Franco message of self worth. When students talk about how powerful Seth came across and how meaningful his comments were you know he touched their minds in meaningful ways. I would encourage schools to have him come and speak to their students for an uplifting and inspirational message.

On behalf of Lawrence Academy, I would love to express how much we appreciated and enjoyed the presentation given by Seth Franco on Monday, September 16th . Our students ranged in grades from 5th – 12thand all were inspired. Not always an easy task to keep the attention of young people for an extended period of time, however, Seth’s talent and personal triumphs kept them attentive. Once again, we thank you

I heard both seniors and freshmen say they really enjoyed it. That’s great feedback from two very different audiences.

Thanks for setting this up.

The other 3 staff members in the BST had a chance to attend the assemblies this morning, so I attended the last assembly. I thought that was one of the best speakers I have heard in a high school setting. He did a great job of keeping the message relevant for the student population. He also used humor/current music which kept the students engaged. Awesome Find!!

What a great assembly! Please come again!!

He was awesome, our AU-IV students really enjoyed it! They especially loved having him teach them how to spin a basketball at the beginning of the assembly.

Preston came to speak to our year 7 through to year 12 students. Preston has amazing communication skills that keep students enthralled in what he saying the whole time. The students were on the edge of their seats, laughing one minute and crying the next.
Preston shared valuable life messages with our students that encouraged, inspired and challenged them in their daily journey of life. The staff also were inspired by Preston’s message and challenged about the vital role that teachers play in the life of students.
We would love to have Preston back anytime and recommend him to come and speak to students. This opportunity will empower students to make positive choices in their lives.
