Former OTS Family Makes NBA History

Former OTS Family Makes NBA History

LeBron and Bronny James recently made NBA history as the first father-son duo to play together in a professional game, both taking the court in the Los Angeles Lakers' season opener last month.

In addition to being a phenomenal athlete, Bronny (pictured far left in this 2017 photo), who spent six-and-a-half formative years at Old Trail School, is remembered fondly by his teachers and peers for his thoughtfulness, humility and kindness. Reflecting on his experiences at Old Trail, Bronny shared in an interview with the Akron Beacon Journal, "I love that school. Old Trail holds a special place in my heart, and I'm so grateful for all those teachers who supported me along the way."

His words highlight the lasting impact of the Old Trail community and the lifelong connections that continue to shape its alumni.
