Jack Pitts & Marques Johnson Presentation

On Thursday, March 11th, Mr. Jack Pitts and Mr. Marques Johnson are two corporate lawyers visited our classroom. They are lawyers that help companies buy other companies. Both had dreams of playing professional sports.  Mr. Johnson wanted to be in the NBA and Mr.  Pitts wanted to be in the NFL but instead they went to law school, and pursued another dream to become lawyers. They spoke about great life lessons. We learned life that is a great dream and a lot of things can happen through out your life. They told us to not put our minds on just one thing and to expand your mind to do different things.


Here is Mr.Pitts and Mr.Johnson telling us about their lives and telling us information that will help us with our lives.



Here is another picture Mr. Pitts and Mr. Johnson about to give us a presentation about what they do as lawyers.


Here are the fifth graders listening and absorbing the great advice being given.
