ADOPT-A-SCHOOL PROGRAM PROVIDES REAL-WORLD OPPORTUNITIES FOR SKILL DEVELOPMENT
The Adopt-a-School program assisted and supported Clark County School District (CCSD) schools identified as at-risk, with in-school and after-school programming and activities, creating opportunities for continued “parent, pupil and principal” interaction.
The goal of the Adopt-a-School program was to provide support and specialized in-school programs, after-school extra-curricular activities, and active-learning opportunities to students in grades 6-8.
Adopt-A-School provided real-world project opportunities that developed important social, emotional, and cognitive learning skills for at-risk students who have very limited opportunities or the financial means to otherwise engage.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE ADOPT-A-SCHOOL PROGRAM
“The Tomorrow’s Stars Foundation sponsorship of John C. Fremont PDMS has allowed our small, antiquated inner city school to be part of the community in an impactful, progressive, and meaningful manner. Fremont students’ lives are changed through opportunity and mentoring, and the Fremont family is very grateful to the NBA Summer League and the Tomorrow’s Stars Foundation for its unwavering support.”
