Making a career in sports isn’t always reliant on one’s ability to sink a three-pointer or sprint 100 yards in 10 seconds. This summer, a group of middle school students received insight and hands-on learning about the variety of sports careers from industry insiders at an event at Arizona State University’s California Center, located in the historic Herald Examiner building in downtown Los Angeles. Davis Middle School is part of the Verizon Innovative Learning program, which provides students with access to the technology and skills needed for success in today’s digital economy. The initiative is made possible by Verizon through a partnership with ASU’s J. Orin Edson Entrepreneurship + Innovation Institute which provides schools like Davis with technology, curriculum, and training to deliver STEM education. Learn more via this ASU News article.
