MSCS superintendent disputes public framing of state’s forensic audit, touts district progress
Memphis-Shelby County Schools Superintendent Dr. Roderick Richmond is disputing the public framing of a state-ordered forensic audit, arguing the report offers only observations and recommendations for problems already identified and addressed by the district. In a message to MSCS families and employees, Richmond placed the transactions in question within the broader context of the district’s nearly $6 billion budget for the three school years examined by an accounting firm hired by the state comptroller’s office.
