ESPN Academy

The Education Scholarship Preparation Nurture (ESPN) Academy was founded in November 2001 by Rev. Dr. A.D. Hill and Mrs. Doris Thomas Hill, who recognized the need to address the high dropout rate and low performance of Memphis City Schools students. The program began as a tutorial initiative to improve graduation rates and children compete on grade level. Certified teachers and tutors provided academic enrichment and social development for church and community children for 2 to 3 days per week. The program received full endorsement and support from the Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church and was staffed by a volunteer principal and tutors.
