Some overachieving students in the Bronx got new custom sneakers Thursday, courtesy a new initiative by hip-hop legend Fat Joe and Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz designed to increase student performance in public schools. This year's accomplished students attend P.S. 146, M.S. 123, Accion Academy, and I.S. 217 School of Performing Arts. The initiative, which was launched in October, saw students at the four schools measured on a variety of indicators of student improvement for the first marking period of the school year, including student engagement, attendance and other factors.
