Just a Kid from Maine
A MOTIVATIONAL presentation!
"A motivating, personal account of an NFL star.”
-Kirkus Review
In the news…
Our very first school visit… had teachers in tears… and US, too!!
IMPACT!!!
“Matt gave us just what we needed to hear!”
“Matt encouraged me to try out for show choir!”
“Now I know I can do it because I am just a kid from Maine!”
Feedback…
We invited Stephanie and Matt Mulligan to our Maine Day celebration! It was exceptional. Staff and students alike stated, "This was the best assembly we've ever had!”
The message that being from Maine is something to be proud of and gives you everything you need to be successful, truly resonated with our learning community. I highly recommend Matt and Stephanie Mulligan. Their presentation was engaging, dynamic and connected seamlessly with our PBIS work.
