Episode Details

NBA superstar LeBron James helped launch the I Promise School (IPS) in his hometown of Akron, Ohio, in 2018 to help "those students who are already falling behind and in danger of falling through the cracks." But then Covid hit, and everything changed. Is the school a "school of failed promises?" Or are the negative headlines mostly the product of a dislike for LeBron James? In truth, it's probably a bit of both. But lost in both extremes is a lesson that goes beyond test scores and school accountability, one that is relevant to each of us today.
