Crews are renovating the school's downtown campus, so Memminger moved to what used to be Brentwood Middle School on Leeds Avenue. "This is an important year for everyone at Memminger as they strive to meet adequate yearly... progress for the third year in a row," said Nexsen Pruet attorney Amy Jowers, who organized the firm's school supply drive. "We hope that by providing children with the supplies they need, the year will start off right and Memminger's students and teachers will be on the path toward another successful year."")
