I Promise

In 2020, Kent State University President Todd Diacon announced to a group of high school juniors and their families that Kent State would cover four years of tuition costs and one year of room and board. Now, for the LeBron James Family Foundation’s first I PROMISE class, the hard work these students had put in since third grade is paying off. 

A group of educators from Brazil spent two weeks at Kent State participating in workshops and field trips to area schools. 

Team LeBron will be playing for Kent State’s I Promise Scholars, a program that provides higher education opportunities for underserved students in Northeast Ohio.
