Shelby County Commission Orders Forensic Audit of MSCS 🚨
The Shelby County Commission has voted to begin a forensic audit of Memphis-Shelby County Schools (MSCS) following the controversial firing of Superintendent Marie Feagins, who served less than 10 months.
Key Details:
• Audit Scope: MSCS finances, federal funding, HVAC issues, outdated IT, and more.
• Budget: $50K allocated from the commission’s contingency fund (could increase if needed).
• Possible Expansion: Other municipal school districts like Germantown, Cordova, and Millington could be audited if they agree and cover costs.
• Lawsuit: Feagins is suing the school board, claiming they violated open meetings laws before her dismissal.
The final vote was 6–3 in favor. A full commission vote is set for Feb. 10. Stay tuned for updates!
