📚💡 EBR School Board Vice President Cliff Lewis visited EBR Readiness Elementary during a town hall and awards ceremony on Friday to encourage students to work hard, believe in themselves and prepare for the future.
Lewis shared how he struggled in school as a child before becoming an NFL player, educator, leader and School Board member. He urged students to ask for help, stay focused and never let labels define who they are.
🗣️ “There ain’t no free lunch,” Lewis said. “You’ve got to work hard — and in many cases, harder than the guy or the girl sitting next to you.”
