All-Star Weekend is in the air here in Los Angeles and Cienega Elementary got a head start on the excitement. Legends of Basketball rolled onto campus with serious star power, bringing former @NBA, @WNBA and @Globies greats to remind students that the real MVP move is reading. WNBA legend Rushia Brown and retired NBA All-Star Antonio Davis helped deliver the message loud and clear: aim high on the court, but aim higher in the classroom. Huge thanks to these legends of the court for inspiring our students and showing that strong readers make strong leaders! #InspiringGreatness

During NBA All-Star Weekend, Nike and Giannis Antetokounmpo showed up big for the Fairfax High School basketball student-athletes with championship-level support. Giannis stopped by to drop a quick pep talk, show love to the teams, and hook them up with fresh gear and a few good luck charms as they head into the next round of playoffs. Nothing like a visit from an MVP to get the squad locked in and ready to run the court. Huge gratitude to @Nike, @DICKS Sporting Goods, and @Giannis_An34 for pouring into our student-athletes and reminding them to play with heart, stay focused, and keep their eyes on the prize. Fairfax is stepping into this next round confident, grateful, and ready to hoop. Let’s go! 🏀✨
