On Tuesday, December 13 at 10:00 a.m., as part of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ Bucs for a Better Bay initiative, Glazer Family Foundation Co-President Darcie Glazer Kassewitz and quarterback Jameis Winston will host a Buccaneers Academy Educational Huddle at Curtis Hixon Park in Tampa for 100 underserved students. The participating children all attend Buccaneers Academy schools – 24 Hillsborough County schools adopted by the Buccaneers through a curriculum-based program that engages students and encourages learning. A majority of the schools are located in economically-distressed areas that lack some of the resources important to educational success.
As the “Quarterback” of Buccaneers Academies dedicated to helping youth reach their full academic potential, Winston will speak to the students about the importance of schoolwork, determination, and accomplishing one’s goals.
