Shelby County is gearing up for a Pre-K Summit here in Memphis next week.
Sadly, right now, only about a third of children here are kindergarten ready when it’s time for them to start school.
Lora Jobe with the People First Partnership, a collaboration of business, government, academic and civic leaders focused on education in Shelby County, and Bartlett Mayor Keith McDonald stopped by to talk about the summit.
