The John R. Wooden Mural just completed at John R. Wooden High School

Basketball, John Wooden Add comments

Jill Painter at Inside UCLA has the scoop on the absolutely gorgeous mural recently unveiled at John R. Wooden High School:

Breathtaking. Painter Writes:

The character from his children’s book, Wooden heroes Abe Lincoln and Mother Teresa, etc. The words ”father, husband, teacher, coach, athlete” are on the mural, with pictures of Wooden in each of those roles.

And..uh…she also writes:

Also, the school has a farm - you could hear roosters in the background during the ceremony - and is looking for donations of animal food. To donate, contact principal Jay Kessler at jkessler@lausd.net.

For the record, John R. Wooden high school is in West Los Angeles. Not Nebraska. Just thought I’d clarify.
