Check out the video — Kendrick pulled up to his alma mater, Centennial High School in L.A. on Friday, where he shared a super sweet embrace with his former teacher … who proudly told him how happy she was to see everything he’s accomplished.
Kendrick took his time chatting with her, listening closely as she explained her daughter actually convinced her to come to the event after hearing Kendrick would be there.
The whole thing was giving major full-circle energy — one of the biggest stars on the planet taking it all the way back to the people who helped shape him before the fame, Grammys, and sold-out stadiums.
Kendrick attended alongside fellow Compton legends Dr. Dre, will.i.am, and other alumni for a celebration unveiling the school’s reimagined campus — part of its first major construction project in 70 years.
