“I am happy to partner with the Get Schooled Foundation to encourage attendance and education. It’s so important to show up, be present and pay attention so your dream becomes a successful reality,” Ne-Yo told AllHipHop.com.
During the day, Ne-Yo taught math, spoke to students about the importance of attending school and other important issues affecting students.
