The event, held at Playhouse on the Square, brought Stand members, parents, teachers, education and elected leaders together to discuss pertinent issues related to the state of education in Memphis, and to outline action plans to impact policy that will improve local schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the half-day convening, participants were briefed on state legislative activity, Stand\u2019s local education policy agenda, and school funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guest speakers included: Tennessee State Senator Lee Harris; Tennessee State Representative Raumesh Akbari; Shelby County Commissioner Van Turner; Shelby County Schools (SCS) Commissioner Chris Caldwell; and SCS administrators Natalia Powers, Angela Carr, and Taurus Currie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following a series of interactive discussions with guest speakers, the Summit focus shifted to identifying specific ways for parents and residents to take action. Stand for Children Organizers facilitated group breakout sessions where participants formed plans to advocate for and influence policy decisions regarding public education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe designed the Summit to not just provide information, but also be a launching point into action to support the education of our children,\u201d said Cardell Orrin, Stand for Children Memphis City Director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe recognize that the lack of parental involvement [in schools] can often be attributed to a lack of information and opportunities to engage. We wanted to give our members and other concerned residents a chance to learn more about the people and work that is occurring to increase local academic achievement, and help them uncover their own individual power to positively impact students and schools.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Approximately 50 guests attended Saturday\u2019s Education Action Summit. Among them was Zipporah Robinson, a local community leader who is passionate about supporting children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe nation is only as strong as its future, and that is our youth,\u201d Robinson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI realized there is a lot I don\u2019t know and some of the statistics that I heard today from our county and school board commissioners are staggering\u2026their presentations struck a nerve and showed me how necessary this work is. There is a real need to educate ourselves and learn how we can invoke change in our educational system(s).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amber Mitchell, a Stand for Children Leader at Leadership Preparatory Charter School where her son attends, was also encouraged by the Summit programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was very informative and it was nice to be around people with the same energy and passion for education advocacy,\u201d said Robinson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/stand.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/large\/public\/Tennessee\/P1050534.JPG?itok=kmrEf4p-\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI feel like citizens are really taking ownership now of what\u2019s going on and willing to do their part instead of letting commissions and school boards dictate and make decisions without involving the people it really affects. We all have a role to play and everyone has a gift that they can use to help our children. In Stand, there\u2019s room for everybody at every level to work together and to inspire others to action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-on-the-horizon\">ON THE HORIZON<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a follow-up to the work at the Summit around the upcoming school funding needs, we encourage all education supporters to attend the following meetings:<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SCS Budget Community Meeting<br><\/strong>Monday, May 9, 2016<br>Location: Cummings Elementary<br>Time: 6:00 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SCS Budget Community Meeting<\/strong><br>Tuesday, May 10, 2016<br>Location: Dexter Elementary<br>Time: 6:00 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Board of Education Workshop &#8211; Budget Review<\/strong><br>Wednesday, May 11, 2016<br>Location: SCS Central Office Auditorium<br>Time: 4:00 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Board of Education &#8211; Final Budget Vote<\/strong><br>Monday, May 16, 2016<br>Location: SCS Central Office Auditorium<br>Time: 4:00 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>County Commission Education Budget Presentation<\/strong><br>Wednesday, May 25, 2016<br>Location: VAsco A.

The initiative is in response to school budget cuts that have occurred over the past three years. Most recently, the SCS Board announced it would cut $36 million from the 2016-2017 budget to close a gap that has persisted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ABOUT STAND FOR CHILDREN TENNESSEE<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stand for Children Tennessee\u2019s mission is to ensure that all children, regardless of their background, graduate from high school prepared for, and with access to, a college education or career training.
