ALLMemphis

Memphis public schools are experiencing a literacy crisis with troubling implications for the social, cultural, and economic development of the city.

At ALLMemphis, our mission is to foster opportunities for historically excluded students to access literacy, and the freedoms it provides, by empowering teachers with training and mentorship in foundational reading. Research demonstrates a clear and troubling link between the toxic stresses of poverty and reading ability. Therefore, to address this crisis, ALLMemphis empowers teachers and literacy coaches in our community with the skills necessary to meet the unique learning needs of our youth.

As we head into the summer months, now is the perfect time to start thinking about summer reading! Keeping kids engaged with books during the break helps them maintain — and even grow — their reading skills.

Here are a few key ways you can encourage your kids this summer:

☀️📚 Visit one of Memphis' local libraries
☀️📚 Set up a dedicated reading nook in your home
☀️📚 Read together out loud using different voices
☀️📚 Pair books with fun activities

This month, Maddie, Krista and Howard traveled to Boston to attend the 2026 Strategic Data Project Convening in Cambridge, MA. Maddie, our Director of Data Analytics, presented her capstone project for her Strategic Data Project Fellowship.

Each year, the convening brings together education leaders and data experts from across the country to examine how to turn data insights into meaningful action in the face of today’s biggest opportunities and challenges in education. Maddie is now able to say she’s a graduate of Cohort 16 from Harvard University.

We are so proud of her amazing work!
