While the details don't perfectly match up, this sounds a hell of a lot like the movie The Blind Side, which was about the real life NFL player Michael Oher.
I would believe it is a TV show or movie about a boy named Michael who is homeless and attends an elementary school where after his first day, a family of a different skin color takes him in and then cares for him while Michael try's to be resistant of the parent being so caring towards him. That is all that I remember.
