The NBA Cares organization brought along a lot of famous faces Thursday as it unveiled a new Live, Learn, Play Center for the students at Lincoln Elementary School in Salt Lake City.
SALT LAKE CITY — Ten-year-old Sayed Miri stood before 200-plus students, teachers, local leaders, NBA representatives and others on Thursday morning, welcoming them all to Lincoln Elementary School.
Sayed, a fifth grader from Afghanistan, is one of 450 kids at the elementary school in South Salt Lake, where students collectively speak over 24 languages besides English at home. "I know firsthand the commitment that the Utah Jazz have toward making us live in a positive community and impacting those that we live with," Rowe said.
"The renovations mean so much," he said. "Now our kids are going to be exposed to a brand new gym floor where they can have so much fun. And then they're going to go right across the way to the STEM lab, where they can be exposed to all of the modern technology so we can catch up with all of those kids in other parts of the world."
"I want you guys to say it each and every day, but I also want you to believe it," Sexton said. "Everything that you've dreamed about is going to happen if you dream big."
