Brief description of Memphis:
Memphis is the capital of the Mid-South. It has a ton of culture and is known for its Blues and BBQ. Favorite attractions include Graceland, Beale
Street, the Peabody Hotel, and the Civil Rights Museum. Memphis is also the site of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s assassination.
What do you like most about Memphis?
There are many things we like about living in Memphis. The city is small, energetic, and filled with great music. Memphis is home to two professional
sports teams, the Grizzlies and the Redbirds. Our skyline has a giant pyramid where the Grizzlies play. We also like our neighborhood. The ACE house is
located in Midtown. We are about 5 minutes from downtown and we live by Overton Park and the Memphis Zoo. Escaped animals from the zoo have been known
to hide in our yard. Tony DeSapio also lived and taught in Memphis (enough said!). Finally, two ACE graduates still work in Memphis Catholic schools.
