District Receives State Distinction for Academic Achievement
Overview
Instructional Consistency Leads to Turnaround
Memphis-Shelby County Schools, the largest district in Tennessee, implemented a districtwide initiative in 2021 to expand Tier 1 support using i-Ready, Ready Reading, and Ready Mathematics. This proved to be a positive turning point, with the district receiving a Level 5 rating from the state for tremendous student growth—the highest distinction available based on composite scores.
