Some members in our units have an (s) after their name. I cannot see anywhere what this means.

Does the "(s)" look like it's part of the name, or is it a separate icon or font style? You could check the "preferred name" field or one of the other name fields on the membership record. It could be that a previous clerk had a system for categorizing members by editing their names (bad idea because anyone in the ward can see names in the directory).
