About the Company

Memphis-Shelby County Schools

Urban school district raising college readiness

Memphis-Shelby County Schools is a large urban school district focused on closing the achievement gap and preparing students for college, careers, and life. It operates by ensuring every classroom has an effective teacher, every school is led by capable administrators, and by applying progressive, data-driven strategies to boost learning outcomes. The district differentiates itself through measurable progress: earning a level 5 growth rating for three years, doubling district-wide math proficiency in three years, and moving I-Zone schools from the bottom 5% to a trajectory toward the top 25% within five years, despite serving a high share of economically disadvantaged students. Its explicit goal for 2025 is that 80% of students be college and career ready, 90% graduate high school, and 100% enroll in post-secondary education.
