Makes sense to me. Memphis city schools are the WORST in the State, they receive the MOST money, and build the most expensive schools. Twice what it cost to build a Shelby County school..gotta make them look pretty for the "poor" students aesthetic senses.

As I am certain you know, the "average daily attendance" formula has saddled Shelby county with a billion dollars in excess bond debt, the proceeds from which have gone to the Memphis city schools overbuilding (and overspending) that has escaped oversight from Memphis taxpayers.

I live in Memphis (and Shelby county, of course) and am furious about this scam by the school system!
