…Every point that Ronald McDonald stressed was so meaningful for the students and so well received by all. You moved about the students with such ease and made a point of personally meeting several "special needs" students before the show. During your show you made a point of referring to these students by name as your friends, which raised their self-esteem beyond expectation.
Truly our faculty and students would agree that Ronald McDonald's visit to Glen Avenue School was the very best show that we have had. It was as if you just knew the message that our children needed to hear, and you then delivered it perfectly with tremendous warmth and vigor. Everyone felt that they were so important in your eyes even our adults in our school office.
Please come again to visit Glen Avenue School! We Love you!

WHAT DO EDUCATORS SAY ABOUT RONALD AND HIS SCHOOL SHOWS?
Hi MaryAnn,
Can you share this information with all Elementary Counselors? We just had an assembly here on choosing good friends, good character, and being positive. Ronald McDonald put on the assembly. If you would like to book a program you can call 410-668-2031. The show runs about 45 minutes in length and the time flies because he is so funny. Another great part of this program is that it is absolutely FREE! My students loved it and so did the teachers. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me by e-mail or phone. I really would recommend this to every school!
Thanks!

…Finally, a special side note to Ronald and Debbie, outside of the program. You walked into Beaver Run so gracious and kind that everyone took notice. Whether it was because you stopped to talk to the office staff, cafeteria staff, teachers, or students you made a difference in their day. You both are truly the best you can be! Again, thank you so much and we look forward to seeing you here at Beaver Run again soon!”
Sincerely,
Mindy Adams BRS School Counselor
WHAT WILL YOUR STUDENTS SEE AND LEARN?
- Ronald uses a fun-filled skit to demonstrate how cooperation is the key to working together.
- The students learn the advantages of being friends and sticking together in good times and bad times.
- A teacher and student are invited on stage to play “Find the Bully” (it seems bullies just vanish when grown-ups are around).
- For a review, Ronald and his puppet friend (a former bully) engage in a fun-filled routine of laughs and learning to reinforce the day’s lessons.
Like always there are lots of laughs, magic and music.
