"We're Not Invisible. We Want To Be Seen."

Our music teachers gathered our students last week for an impromptu recording of Memphis Street Academy Charter's school song. The song, written by music teacher Mr. Joe McNichols, is a work in progress (like all of us). The song exemplifies Memphis Street Academy's first year, stressing the points of turning around, making changes, and reaching great heights. Every day, we see miles in inches from our students as we grow together as a school. It's amazing to see how much progress has been made, even in one month.

I once heard Jim Henson reiterate on old Native American proverb, “We do not inherit the land from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children." Please take a look at these amazing students. We learn from them as much as we teach.
