Remove School Board Member Natalie McKinney from MSCS District 2

The Issue

Natalie McKinney, the current board member of MSCS District 2, is threatening to remove Dr. Feagins as MSCS Superintendent. This initiative doesn't resonate with the opinions of the district's students, parents, teachers and community members who recognize Dr. Marie Feagins' diligent efforts as our Superintendent. Ms. McKinney is putting personal feelings ahead of the needs of Memphis students, and therefore needs to be removed from her position as an MSCS board member. Removing Natalie McKinney  would mean that the school board would not have a majority, and they would be unable to remove Dr. Feagins as our Superintendent. If you reside in district 2, please consider our children and sign this petition. District 2 Map

Dr. Feagins has contributed significantly to improve our educational system. She is battling truancy by fostering open communication with parents of absent children, one of the district’s most prominent issues. Moreover, her presence in Memphis schools and communities has visibly increased, illustrating her commitment to the district's wellbeing. Above all, Dr. Feagins has consistently shown openness to feedback, demonstrating the type of leadership we need in our district.

Unfortunately, Natalie McKinney is advocating her removal on baseless claims, without properly considering the consequences for the district's students, parents, teachers and larger community. We must stand against this unmerited removal of a competent and devoted superintendent.

Support us in ensuring that the appropriate judgment for this matter is reached by considering the impact on our students’ education, future and well-being over any personal or political interests. Sign this petition to REMOVE NATALIE MCKINNEY FROM THE MSCS SCHOOL BOARD.
