2025 Memphis Literacy Conference

Join us on September 20th for our fifth annual — a full day of learning with literacy experts, designed to help PreK–12 educators and leaders strengthen instruction and advance literacy outcomes in their schools.

We’re excited to offer a wide range of sessions tailored for early childhood, elementary, secondary, Multilingual Learner (MLL), and Special Education educators, as well as a dedicated track for school leaders. Attendees will choose from a variety of offerings to build their own schedule of three sessions, all held throughout the Crosstown Concourse building. Each session description includes a "recommended audience" label to help attendees find the sessions most relevant to their role and interests.

Registration is $55 and includes attendance, lunch, a T-shirt, and a swag bag. The registration fee will increase to $65 on August 1, so be sure to register early!

The Memphis Literacy Conference has historically qualified for state of Tennessee PDPs and Memphis-Shelby County Schools PLZ.

Refund policy: Refund requests received on or before September 6, 2025 will be honored but are subject to an administrative fee. Registrants canceling on or after September 7, 2025 will not receive a refund, but registration may be transferred to another individual. In the event that the Memphis Literacy Conference is canceled due to unforeseen circumstances, the cost of registration will be refunded.
