Supplemental Retirement Plans

SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLANS

 

401k Plan

Memphis-Shelby County Schools, in conjunction with the State of Tennessee, offers a 401k plan through Empower.  This is part of Tennessee’s Retire Ready TN platform, which incorporates our defined pension plan through Tennessee Consolidated Retirement Systems (TCRS) and the 401k deferred compensation plans. 
 

MSCS employees are eligible to participate in the 401K plan through Empower. Teachers are automatically enrolled for a 2% contribution with an opt-out option if hired on or after July 1, 2014.  All other employees can enroll voluntarily. 


To enroll in the 401k deferred compensation plan, make changes to the deduction amount, or ask questions related to establishing an account, please contact Retire Ready/Empower at 1-800-922-7772 or visit their website at https://www.empower-retirement.com/.  You may also schedule an appointment with your RetireReadyTN retirement plan advisors for more information.

 

403(b) Plan

In addition to our state retirement plans through TCRS and Empower, Memphis-Shelby County Schools has several vendors that offer additional 403(b) plan options.  For more information on these plans or enrollment inquiries, you may call the vendors directly.  A list of vendors has been provided below. Find additional FAQs here.
