The district is commonly listed at 160 Glenn Rogers Sr. Street, Memphis, TN 38112, while Board materials may also reference the Frances E. Coe Administration Building and 160 S. Hollywood Street. These references point users toward the same district/board location area, but you should always confirm the current meeting or office location before traveling.

School calendar

Where to get the MSCS school calendar, holidays and district events

The official Open MSCS Calendar page is the best place to check districtwide calendar items. Search results may show school events, Board Committee Meetings, registration dates, holidays, district announcements, and school-year planning details.

Families usually search this page for the first day of school, fall break, Thanksgiving break, winter break, spring break, teacher workdays, holidays, testing windows, summer learning, graduation season, and the last day of school. Use the district calendar for systemwide planning and the individual school page for campus events.

Calendar dates can change. Severe weather, emergency closures, Board decisions, make-up days, testing updates, and district announcements can affect planning. Always use the official current calendar before booking travel, childcare, appointments, transportation changes, or school event plans.

📅 District dates

Use the MSCS calendar page for districtwide events and school-year planning.

🏫 School events

Check the individual school page for open house, campus meetings, athletics, testing, and local school events.

🗓️ Board events

Board and committee meetings may appear on MSCS calendar and board pages.

⚠️ Recheck before planning

Use the latest official calendar before relying on copied PDFs or screenshots.

District office

MSCS office address, district phone and board office routing

MSCS official pages commonly list the district at 160 Glenn Rogers Sr. Street, Memphis, TN 38112, with the Student & Parent page listing phone 901-416-5300. BoardDocs public pages list the same Glenn Rogers Sr. Street address and show a board-related phone number of 901-416-5447.

Some Board pages and public meeting information still reference the Frances E. Coe Administration Building, 160 S. Hollywood Street. This can confuse users because the same building area may appear under different street references in official and archived materials. Before visiting, check the current Board meeting notice, BoardDocs listing, or district page.

The central office is useful for district-level routing, Board Office resources, departments, agenda materials, records, and official contact direction. For one student’s attendance, pickup, schedule, classroom concern, or campus event, the school office is usually the faster first contact.

📍 District location

Official pages commonly list 160 Glenn Rogers Sr. Street, Memphis, TN 38112.

☎️ Main phone

The MSCS Student & Parent page lists 901-416-5300.

🏛️ Board location note

Board pages may reference Frances E. Coe Administration Building / 160 S. Hollywood Street.

🏫 School-level help

Contact the individual school for student-specific attendance, pickup, teacher, and campus-event questions.

Board basics

Shelby County Board of Education, board members and district governance

The official Open MSCS Board Page is the correct starting point for the Memphis-Shelby County Board of Education. The page includes board members, the Board Office, Board Meetings, Board Meeting Calendar, legislative agenda resources, addressing the Board, proclamation/document requests, meeting documents, archived audio, archived video, agenda submissions, and board policy.

The board materials identify the governing body as the Shelby County Board of Education / Memphis-Shelby County Board of Education. Families may search “Memphis-Shelby County Schools Board of Education,” “MSCS board,” or “Shelby County Board of Education.” For practical use, open the official MSCS Board page and BoardDocs portal rather than relying on a search snippet.

Board member roles, districts, contact links, and leadership can change after elections, appointments, vacancies, or reorganization. Use the official board member page before naming or contacting a board member about a school issue.

👥 Board members

Use the official Board Members page for current names, districts, and board representative details.

🏢 Board Office

Use the Board Office page for board-related location, meeting, and public participation context.

📄 BoardDocs

Use BoardDocs for agendas, policies, library items, meeting lists, minutes, and board records.

🔁 Verify current details

Board details can change. Use official pages before calling, speaking, or publishing board information.

Meetings

How to check MSCS board meetings, BoardDocs agendas and minutes

The official board pages state that regular Business Meetings of the Shelby County Board of Education are held at the Frances E. Coe Administration Building and commonly list the meeting time as 5:30 p.m. on the last Tuesday of each month. Board calendar entries and BoardDocs should still be checked before attending because meeting schedules, special called meetings, committee meetings, and work sessions can differ.

The public Open BoardDocs Portal provides access to meeting lists, agendas, policies, library items, and minutes-related resources. Board pages also link to YouTube, Facebook live/recent streams, video archives, and audio archives.

Do not use an old agenda PDF or social post as your final source. Open the official Board page, check the calendar or BoardDocs meeting list, confirm the meeting type, then read the current agenda and public participation rules.

1

Open the official Board page

Start with the MSCS Board page for board members, board office, meeting links, and official board resources.

2

Check BoardDocs

Use BoardDocs for meeting lists, agendas, policies, library items, and minutes-related resources.

3

Confirm meeting type

Business Meetings, Special Called Meetings, work sessions, and committee meetings can have different public comment rules.

4

Recheck before attending

Confirm the meeting date, time, location, stream link, agenda, and participation process before traveling.

Meeting caution: Board meeting details can change because of special meetings, agenda revisions, emergency meetings, location updates, or district notices. Always use the official current listing.

Public comments

Addressing the MSCS Board and public comment rules

The official Open Addressing the Board page says members of the public who want to address the Board may do so at regular Business Meetings and Special Called Meetings. It also says public comment is not permitted at Board work sessions or committee meetings.

This distinction matters. Many families search for “MSCS board meeting public comment” and then show up at the wrong type of meeting. Before preparing remarks, check the meeting type, current agenda, participation form, sign-up rules, deadline, and public comment instructions.

Public comment reminder: Public comment rules are meeting-type specific. Read the current MSCS Board instructions before arriving or submitting comments.

Registration

MSCS student registration, returning student updates and online forms

The official Open MSCS Registration page is the correct place to start for student registration. The page title references the 2026-2027 School Year Student Registration and directs families to complete online registration in PowerSchool.

PowerSchool is central to registration. MSCS-related pages explain that a PowerSchool account is required to be enrolled in school and also gives parents access to other important processes and student information. Parents may need a PowerSchool parent account, student access code, or returning student update process depending on the situation.

Registration is not only a login. Families may need proof of residence, proof of age, immunization records, prior school information, parent/guardian identity, custody documents, and school-specific follow-up. Always follow the current registration page and your assigned school’s instructions.

🧾 New student registration

Use the official registration page and PowerSchool for the current student registration process.

🔁 Returning student updates

Returning student updates are handled through official PowerSchool-linked district processes.

📄 Required documents

Prepare residence, age, immunization, school records, and guardian documents when requested.

🏫 School follow-up

The assigned school may follow up after online registration is submitted.

Parent portal

PowerSchool portal for MSCS parents, students, grades and registration

The official Open PowerSchool Portal page is important because MSCS uses PowerSchool for several parent and student processes. Official pages mention New Student Registration, Returning Student Updates, Summer Learning Academy Application, student grades, attendance, report cards, and other student information.

Parents should use the official MSCS PowerSchool link rather than searching random login pages. If you are asked for a username, password, student number, lunch number, access code, or family information, confirm the page is linked from SCSK12.org or your school’s official website.

📱 Grades and attendance

PowerSchool gives parent/student access to grades, attendance, and report card information where available.

🧾 Registration

New student registration and returning student updates are connected to PowerSchool processes.

🏫 School choice access

School Choice pages reference the student’s PowerSchool ID for current MSCS students.

🔐 Login safety

Do not enter parent portal credentials on pages that are not linked from MSCS or your official school site.

School choice

MSCS School Choice, optional schools and application help

The official Open MSCS School Choice page is the correct starting point for school choice. The page indicates that parents of current MSCS students should apply using the student’s PowerSchool ID, which is the same as the student’s lunch number.

MSCS also maintains Optional Schools resources and school-specific school choice pages. Families should read the current-year application windows, eligibility rules, program requirements, selection criteria, transportation notes, and deadlines before applying.

Do not confuse neighborhood assignment, optional school applications, school choice applications, charter schools, and special program enrollment. Each route can have different requirements and deadlines.

🏫 School Choice

Use the official School Choice page for application information and current-year instructions.

⭐ Optional Schools

Use Optional Schools pages for program-specific application details and deadlines.

📱 PowerSchool ID

Current MSCS students may use their PowerSchool ID, which is the same as the student lunch number.

⚠️ Deadlines matter

Application windows and eligibility requirements can change each year.

School assignment

Find Your School, school zone locator and school directory help

MSCS pages link families to Find Your School and School Zone Locator resources. These tools help parents identify school options and assigned school information based on address and district rules. A city name alone is not enough because Memphis and Shelby County include many school zones and programs.

Before enrolling, applying for school choice, or assuming transportation eligibility, use the official school locator and current-year registration pages. Neighborhood assignment, optional schools, school choice, and transportation routes can all differ.

🔎 Find Your School

Use district-linked locator resources for address-based school information.

🏠 Address matters

Use the current home address instead of relying only on city, ZIP code, or nearby campus.

🏫 Directory check

After finding a school, open the school’s official page for local contacts and campus updates.

⚠️ Do not guess

Wrong-school assumptions can delay registration, transportation, or student scheduling.

Transportation

MSCS transportation, Find My Bus, bus rules and route help

The official Open MSCS Transportation page is the correct starting point for transportation. MSCS transportation pages describe service for approximately 23,500+ students and include links for bus transportation rules, Find My Bus, contacting transportation, field trip bus information, and transportation FAQs.

Transportation is student-specific. Eligibility, route, bus stop, special education transportation, school choice status, program assignment, address, and grade level can all affect service. Do not assume bus eligibility based only on distance or a neighbor’s bus stop.

If your child’s bus is late, route details are missing, a stop needs review, or special transportation is involved, use official transportation tools and school/district contacts rather than asking a driver to change route details.

🚌 Transportation page

Use official MSCS Transportation resources for bus rules, Find My Bus, and transportation contact routes.

📍 Find My Bus

Use the official tool when available for route or bus-stop information.

♿ Special services

Special education transportation may have different routing and support steps.

⚠️ Eligibility varies

School choice, address, grade, program, and district rules can affect bus access.

Records

MSCS student records, transcripts and official document requests

Student records can include transcripts, enrollment documents, report cards, attendance, graduation verification, and other student-specific information. For many records, the student’s school is the fastest first contact. For districtwide records guidance, use official MSCS student/parent resources and records request links when provided.

Do not submit private student records, IDs, Social Security details, health records, custody documents, transcripts, or payments through unofficial websites. If a page asks for private information, confirm it is linked from SCSK12.org or the student’s official school site.

🎓 Transcripts

Start with the student’s current or former school and official MSCS records guidance.

📄 Report cards

PowerSchool may provide grade, attendance, and report card access where available.

🏫 School-level records

The school office is often the fastest route for student-specific records questions.

🔐 Privacy warning

Never upload private student records to unofficial sites.

Parent tools

MSCS student and parent resources, handbooks and support links

The official Open Student & Parent Page links families to important resources such as PowerSchool for parents, school calendar, registration, transportation, Find Your School, school choice, and student/parent support pages.

Individual school sites may also include Student-Parent Handbook, Parent Welcome Center, Title I links, school choice information, parent/student quick links, and contact details. For campus-specific issues, open the school website from MSCS links rather than using old search results.

📱 PowerSchool

Use official PowerSchool links for grades, attendance, report cards, and registration processes.

📘 Student-Parent Handbook

Use official school or district links for handbook rules and expectations.

🏫 Parent Welcome Center

School pages commonly link to parent support and family engagement resources.

⚠️ Login caution

Use login pages linked by MSCS or your official school site.

Schools

MSCS schools, school pages and campus contact information

Memphis-Shelby County Schools includes many elementary, middle, high, optional, specialized, and program schools across Memphis and Shelby County. Individual school sites may list the principal, address, phone, fax, school choice information, parent/student links, school events, staff pages, programs, and campus announcements.

Do not use one campus website to answer districtwide questions. Use district pages for calendar, registration, board meetings, transportation, and school choice; use school pages for campus-specific events, teacher contact, attendance, pickup rules, local forms, and student activities.

🍎 Elementary schools

Use official school pages for local announcements, classroom contacts, school events, and parent links.

🎒 Middle schools

Use campus pages for schedules, activities, athletics, clubs, and school-specific communication.

🎓 High schools

⭐ Optional programs

Use School Choice and Optional Schools pages for application programs and eligibility rules.

Fees and free info

What MSCS information is free and what may require payment

You should not pay a third-party site to see the district calendar, Board meeting schedule, BoardDocs agendas, Board policy, student registration page, PowerSchool link, school choice information, transportation page, school locator, or student/parent links.

Some official services may involve payment, third-party processing, tickets, meal accounts, transcript processing, activity fees, field trip costs, athletic events, optional program fees, or other school-approved charges.
