Andre Agassi Opens 2nd School

There are some athletes who spend their money on drugs, women, bling and other stupid stuff.
Then you have former tennis great, Andre Agassi who give money back to the community.
From Norm of the LVRJ: Andre Agassi was in Phoenix last week to open a charter school for kids at risk. He joined Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton and partners involved in Eagle College Preparatory. The Canyon-Agassi Charter School Facilities Fund will help take the school from 180 students from kindergarten through fourth grade to 450 (kindergarten through eighth grade) by 2016.  http://www.lvrj.com/news/high-roller-reality-show-gets-testy-174084351.html
Agassi also help open a charter school here in Las Vegas- the Andre Agassi Preparatory School: http://www.agassiprep.org/
This school is located in the inner city of Las Vegas and works with at-risk kids.
So, it is great to see athletes like Agassi and his wife, Steffi Graf give back to the community.
