LeBron James just opened a public school in Akron Ohio and I’m here for it! Since LeBron is an entrepreneur, my hope is that the school will educate the students on how to be entrepreneurs even if they don’t attend college (as very few schools do).
“They settled on a program that helped teach the skills children need to handle trauma they see in their daily lives, combined with a hard math and science curriculum that would help further their education.
The school’s “wraparound” services help reduce stress kids might feel when their parents are struggling financially. That includes job and family services, a GED program, a food pantry from which they can shop and choose their meals, and help with housing if needed. They have a seven-week summer camp program to help avoid the trouble that comes with too much free time.
Every student gets a bicycle because when James was growing up, he used one to get away from the more dangerous parts of his community. The students also get a Chromebook to complete their homework.”

Yasss!! My heart was smiling to hear that he opened this school. I’m here for it as well. Like you said I hope they teach them how to be entrepreneurs as well to prepare them for future endeavors. I’m proud of Lebron and his foundation. That’s what I’m talking about. Now what happened to the school Umar Johnson was gonna open??? Riiight 🤷🏾♀️
