Pharrell Williams Is Opening A School!

Pharrell Williams creator, singer, songwriter, producer and fashion icon is opening a school in his hometown of Norfolk, Virginia this fall through his non-profit Yellow. The school will be called Yellowhab and will have a science, technology, engineering and math learning environment and will serve the underserved children. Pharrell is even going to lengths to enlist assistance from NASA scientists and education futurists to make this happen. The curriculum will be bespoke and tailored to each individual student. Pharrell plans to pay the tuition for the first 40-50 students that enroll the inaugural year.

Best of wishes Pharrell on this wonderful news! We can’t wait to see how well the school is going to be.
