Pre-K for All: Weekly Policy Update

Great news: Momentum continues as First 8 Memphis shepherds a “Pre-K for All” joint ordinance through the Memphis City Council and Shelby County Board of Commissioners. This week, the county unanimously passed the ordinance on its third and final reading, leaving just one reading by the city council before the ordinance is fully adopted. This is a historic moment that builds on a long community effort to provide a high-quality early education to every child in Shelby County.
