Jared's Story

My passion is Basketball.

6 years ago when I was 9 years old,a Chicago-native, 250, 6´11 standing, high school senior would ultimately direct me to where I want to go in life. In Anthony Davis´s freshman year in high school he was just a common story, a 6´3 guard looking for a scholarship to play at a collegiate level. One night when a scout from Cleveland State came to see him play, they gave him what he wanted granting him his first scholarship. Over that summer, leading into his junior year Davis grew an outlandish 7 inches, now putting him at a power forward position. Well this led Davis to average an outstanding 39 points 18 rebounds and nearly 10 blocks a game and then becoming the most sought after student-athlete in the whole nation.That story really gave me hope and inspired me to believe that it´s never too late to impress those that doubted.

A Note from Ms. O'Connell, Jared's Teacher

Because the focus of our charter school is academic rigor, there are few opportunities for students to engage in extracurricular athletics. Jared has started making long-term plans to achieve the goals he has set for himself, which include attending Syracuse University and trying out for the basketball team there. In addition to attending various basketball development camps and clinics, Jared has opted into several strength and conditioning electives offered at our high school. Most impressively, Jared has worked extremely hard to improve his GPA so that his options moving forward are not limited in any way.
