The school focuses on students who are at risk in reading and need additional academic intervention so they don’t fall further behind their classmates. About 240 third- and fourth-graders will attend classes this first year, with enrollment set to expand to 1,000 students in grades 1 through 8 by 2022, according to Cleveland TV station WEWS. On Sunday, James tweeted that he was a bundle of nerves waiting for that first school bell.
