Parent Summit offers Utility Vouchers

Memphis City Schools is holding a series of Demand Parent Summits on four successive Saturdays - the last one is this Saturday, March 14 from 8 AM to 3 PM at Hamilton High School, 1363 Person St.

There will be drawings throughout the day at each of the summits for $25 vouchers which can be used toward MLGW payments. Up to 10 voucher cards will be given away to different parents at each location. Parents who come early and stay for all of the workshops will have more chances in the drawing.

Superintendent Kriner Cash has created a series of community outreach events for parents called -Demand Parent Summits- so that he may have open conversations with parents, guardians and caregivers about their child's education and future.

The district will provide transportation from designated locations within each region, breakfast and lunch, as well as interactive child-care. Each summit will feature sessions like Early Childhood Development, Basic Tenets of Strong Discipline: Parents Must Lead the Way, How to Support Your Child-s Education at Home and at School, Avoiding Surprises - Charting the Course Towards Graduation, Our
Children - Math & Literacy Development, and Gang Awareness and Intervention.

For more info about the summits, call MCS at 416-7264.
