Community Partnerships

PARTNER WITH US!

Our Partnerships with the community evolved from the Adopt‑A‑School program which was created by legacy Memphis City Schools and the Volunteer Center of Memphis in 1979. The purpose of forming partnerships is to foster a better understanding of our public-school district and to establish a relationship between the Community and Memphis Shelby County Schools. To date, our partners have grown to more than 1000 business/community partners .

Adopt‑A‑School

The Adopt‑A‑School Partnership Program is a Memphis Shelby County Schools District initiative that brings businesses, civic and faith‑based organizations, individuals, or any other community‑based group together with a school to form a partnership. During the partnership, adopters and school personnel commit themselves to specific goals, activities, resources (human/financial) all of which are intended to make a sustainable impact on student success.
