flag Memphis schools delay permanent superintendent hire amid $6M state audit and takeover threat.

flag The Memphis-Shelby County Schools board delayed approving interim Superintendent Roderick Richmond’s permanent contract, citing an ongoing $6 million state audit and potential state takeover. flag The decision, made 7-2, aims to avoid financial risks, including a possible $1.2 million severance, if state oversight is imposed. flag The audit, still under review, may influence legislative action, with Republican lawmakers pushing for state intervention due to low academic performance and governance concerns. flag The board plans to revisit the contract and a district turnaround plan at a March 24 meeting, as leadership stability remains a priority amid uncertainty.
