Early Literacy Consortium: Read901 Meeting Sprint 4
About this Event
What will it take to build communities where every child can grow as a reader?
Join the Early Literacy Consortium at Memphis Teacher Residency during our five-meeting Read901 planning sprint to help answer that question together.
Read901 brings partners across Shelby County together around the shared priorities of our Early Literacy Plan. This fall, we’ll turn that shared direction into practical recommendations: the strategies, partnerships, resources, and measures of progress needed to move the work forward.
On December 2nd, we’ll:
- Refine the strategies proposed by each Priority Team.
- Determine the scale needed to reach our shared goals.
- Identify the people, partnerships, funding, and other resources required.
- Discuss implementation timelines and partner contributions.
- Begin shaping recommendations for action and investment.
We’ll gather as the full ELC at each meeting, combining shared guidance with dedicated Priority Team working time. Between meetings, teams will have time to continue conversations, gather input, and move agreed tasks forward.
