MSCS Superintendent Invites Candidates Nationwide to ‘Move to Memphis’

In the aftermath of a leading restructuring within Memphis School City Schools (MSCS) resulting in the elimination of several hundred positions, the district has launched an ambitious nationwide hiring drive. Organizing multiple hiring fairs—with the forthcoming one planned over 200 miles away—the district intensifies its efforts to fill the numerous vacant positions.

Comprehensive Campaign to Revitalize Memphis Education

A social media crusade was rolled out last Wednesday by the district, exhorting people to choose Memphis as their home and contribute to its transformation. The short PSA showcased a string of elected officials, including Mayor Paul Young, who galvanized potential applicants to relocate to the iconic Bluff City. This promotional endeavor was initiated two days preceding a scheduled recruitment event in Birmingham, Alabama.

Higher Salaries to Entice Talent

The district’s positive overture also counts an 8% hike in the starting salary for new teachers, boosted to $50,800. This stands in contrast to the starting salary of $45,000 offered by Birmingham City Schools, according to their official website. The higher compensation is meant to attract and retain competent talent in various roles, including social workers, teacher assistants, and nurses, besides in-classroom teachers.

Local Educators Remain a Priority

While casting a wider net, MSCS also has its eye on local expertise. Liz Marable, the President of the United Education Association of Shelby County, emphasized the district’s commitment to prioritizing local educators. “We support our teachers first, and we would like people in this area to come and work in Shelby County Schools to help us move the needle,” Marable stated, mirroring the broader sentiment of recruiting locally to elevate the educational standards.

Wait Continues for Recruitment Updates

The exact need in terms of in-classroom teachers required ahead of the school commencement day, however, is yet undisclosed by MSCS. Anticipating an official acknowledgement, this critical information is expected to guide the focus and reach of the recruitment drive.
