Ray Negron, New York Yankees executive, author, producer and motivational speaker, was the featured speaker during an assembly at Brookhaven Elementary School on Feb. 7.
By telling his life story through a skit and animated video, Negron inspired students to make good choices and to give others second chances.
Students learned that while Negron made bad choices as a teenager, he was able to turn his life around after Yankees owner George Steinbrenner offered him a second chance and a position as the Yankees’ bat boy.
