Our Partnership
Global Children Services is an early childhood partnership with First 8 Memphis. Pre-K provides preschool for 4 year olds in schools so that they will enter kindergarten ready to learn. Students benefit not only from the academic portion of Pre-K, but also the wrap-around services that Global Children Services offers, providing each child with health, disability, and nutrition services as well as family services.
