Kids Have Blast at Amway Center While Learning Valuable Lesson

ORLANDO – Many fourth grade teachers from various Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) can expect their students to be extra motivated for the rest of the school year.

If they are wondering where that additional enthusiasm derived from, the Orlando Magic’s inaugural Pick, Read & Roll event at Amway Center will have probably had something to do with it.

Based on what they heard and saw during the event, which was 250 deserving kids from the grade above them participating in on-court activities with Magic players, the 8,250 fourth graders watching from their arena seats will have every reason in the “book” to push themselves.
