Jim ‘Basketball’ Jones came to our elementary this morning for an assembly. His messaging was kind, motivating, full of empathy and inspiration to be better humans. Our kids sang and danced. Both staff and students were engaged the entire time. It was beautiful!

We’ve had many assemblies at our school over the years and Basketball Jones is absolutely at the top of our list after his performance today. His relevance, compassion, message, energy, ability to connect with every person in the room (over 550 in our case!) and, of course, ball-handling skills is unmatched. 5 stars is simply not enough. Thank you, Basketball Jones! We will definitely see you again!
