About Elementary School Assemblies
I offer a variety of elementary school assemblies that are fun and educational. Strong emphasis on FUN! Kids will retain knowledge better if they are having fun while learning.
Elementary school assemblies are most effective when we separate the age groups. I suggest at least three different grade levels: pre-k – 1st, 2rd – 3rd, 4th – 5th, with about 15-minutes in between each group. This will allow enough time to move the first group out, bring the next group in, and for me to reset my props. If you would rather only have two groups or have all grade levels at once, then I would suggest seating the lower grades in front and upper grades in back.
Below is a list of elementary school assemblies programs that include magic shows a reward, science, Red Ribbon Week, and more! You also have the option of choosing any of the shows listed below for specific grade levels or even school carnivals.
If you keep scrolling down the page, past the “Insurance Q&A”, you’ll see my list of shows. Or, CLICK HERE.
Insurance Q&A
Below are frequently asked questions regarding school district and state requirements. I understand that there is a lot of red tape. While on going over the state’s and district’s requirements with one elementary school principal, she broke down saying, “I just want magic show?! Why is this so hard?!” I totally felt her frustration. All you want it to provide a fun and educational program for the kids. That’s why I’ve spent the extra money and took the extra time to make the process easier. If it’s within my budget and within my control, I’ll make it happen.
In some cases, a waiver will be requested. But in most cases, I have everything you need to make the process go as smoothly as possible. Please let me know if you have any other specific requirements or questions.
Do You Have General Liabilty Insurance?
YES! Coverage up to one-million-dollars as per the state’s requirements?
Can We Get An Additional Insured Endorsement?
Absolutely! It take about one to three days to get the endorsement after I’ve submitted for it. The policy will be added as a link to your invoice in the “Event Documents” section. That way, you’ll have everything in one place!
Does Your Policy Meet The State's SAM Requirements?
Yes it does. I pay about $600 more each year for the state-required “Sexual Abuse and Molestation” coverage, up to one-million-dollars.
Can You Provide A W9?
Of course! You will receive a copy of my W9 automatically when you receive the invoice. If you need it earlier, just let me know.
Do You Have Commercial Automotive Insurance?
No. I do not have a commercial vehicle and, therefore, do not need to have commercial insurance. If this is something that you require, then we will need a waiver for it. But, I do have full coverage on my vehicle and am happy to provide my auto insurance policy upon request.
Do You Carry Workman's Comp?
I do not. I am the only employee of my business. I am not required to have workman’s comp. If this is something required on your contracts, then we will need a waiver.
Are Your Shots and TB Test Up-To-Date?
Yes they are! On the invoice, you’ll find a link to a Google Drive folder that contains my vaccination and TB test records.

Reward Magic Show (Click Here)
This elementary school assembly is exactly how it sounds! Just a fun show that you can use as a way to REWARD students for their achievements!
