There is a guard on the back side of the discs that protect it from debris, etc and sometimes they get pushed in and rub or screech. Check that out.

Suggested Repair

Inspect the dust shield or guard on the back of the brake discs. It can get pushed inward and rub or screech even after pads and shoes are replaced.
