Kyree Bethel knew one of his students dreamed of lacing up a pair of Air Jordans. But he knew Justin Barnes might never be able to afford the pricey sneakers.
So the Goldsboro High School math teacher stepped up.
Bethel’s act of kindness, caught on video, went viral and caught the attention of Michael Jordan’s international brand.
Justin has never owned a pair of @Jumpman23 sneakers, but that all changed today inside GHS’ self-contained classroom thanks to Math teacher Kyree Bethel. #RandomActsOfKindness #jordans #airjordan pic.twitter.com/olfVugcYiq
