The Soulsville Charter School

More great sports news! TWO of our stellar cross country athletes just qualified for the 2024 Tennessee State Championship meet! Senior Cameron Carter had a BLAZING fast 5K time and finished 2ND OVERALL in the Western Regional Championship! Senior Shakeria McKinley came in 7TH PLACE out of all of the girls and paved her way to the state meet! The rest of the boys team battled it out valiantly, but unfortunately their season ended with a 7th place overall team finish. Be sure to congratulate them all when you see them in school tomorrow, and send good vibes and good luck to Cam and Shakeria for the big state championship meet taking place next week. Go tornados!

These ladies are going to STATE! After a 22/0 win over Freedom Prep last night, the girl’s rugby team will soon face off with the best of the best.

Congratulations! Now let’s do it again! 🏉🏆

Just wanted to shout-out our stellar high school cross country team members on an AMAZING competition at the MSCIAA City Championship race this afternoon!

Pictured here…..

Senior Cameron Carter came in SECOND PLACE OVERALL, claiming his title as second fastest boy in A/AA division of Memphis! The entire boys team comprised of Andrew Hurd, Kyle Tyler, Chuck Dennis, Cayden Robinson, and Cameron Carter placed THIRD OVERALL, the best place the team has ever earned in the division championship!

Senior Shakeria McKinley TIED the school record over the fall break at the Frank Horton Classic, and today…came in 2ND PLACE OVERALL claiming her spot on the podium as second fastest girl in A/AA division of Memphis!

Be sure to congratulate them on their accomplishments, and send good vibes as they ALL are moving onto the Region 8 State Qualifier meet later this month!

TSCS just got some wonderful news:

On behalf of the TN FAFSA Challenge and the Tennessee Higher Education Commission/Tennessee Student Assistance Corporation, I am excited to share that The Soulsville Charter School has earned the FAFSA Champion Designation for the 2023-2024 academic year.

This designation is awarded to schools whose Tennessee Promise FAFSA completion rate increased by 5+% over the previous year, or those whose Tennessee Promise FAFSA completion rate exceeds 90%. This notification is a little later than usual due to the delayed deadline for TN Promise FAFSA completion.

Thanks again for the great work you do to ensure all Tennessee students have the opportunity to access and succeed in higher education.

Dear TSCS Families,

As a reminder, The Soulsville Charter School follows Memphis-Shelby County Schools' decisions on inclement weather, and all Memphis-Shelby County Schools will close early today, Thursday, September 12th. TSCS will close early at 12:30pm. All after-school TSCS activities are canceled as well. Stay safe.

Call now to connect with business.

We're thrilled to announce that The Soulsville Charter School has achieved a remarkable 93.8% FAFSA completion rate as of June 18th, despite a national decline in financial aid application rates. Read more about Tennessee's success in FAFSA completion in this article from The Daily Memphian

Tennessee tops US in financial-aid forms, but many high schools lag behind Two Frayser high schools increased financial-aid application completion rates this year, bucking state and district trends. But more students still need to fill out the form for college.

See you there, Soulsville Band Students!

And that's a WRAP on the class of 2024! Go out and do great things - we know you will.

Caps and gowns and diplomas! That's right - it's graduation night for the class of 2024! Congratulations seniors, and may your futures be bright and full of all the promise and opportunities you deserve! If you can't make it tonight live stream the ceremony from anywhere! brownbaptist.org/graduation

She was awarded $5,000 for the garden! , BVI, and went to Soulsville to present the award to Sherita.
