Turner previously held a similar position with Atlanta Public Schools, according to MSCS.
This is the second recent resignation from a high-ranking member of Feagins' staff. In August, George Harris, Executive Director of Safety and Security, announced he was stepping away for “personal reasons” after security staff members threatened a strike.
