ESPN.com features Tyrone Curry

Read it here.

  1. I’d heard a little bit about this story, but never read the whole thing. That ESPN article is an amazing account. Way to go Tyrone!

  2. I am so inspired to read about this remarkable individual who so generously and unselfishly shares of himself with so many. As the newly elected school board member, Tyrone Curry’s efforts now can benefit more students than just those at Evergreen High.

    Coming from a real hands-on perspective and truly understanding of how poverty affects students will be very valuable when important decisions need to be made. When I was being educated to be a teacher, a professor once told me that two important, but often overlooked, people in the school were the secretary and the janitor. Congratulations!
