PUBLIC PARTICIPATION

VI Board File

Mrs. !neva Mae Pittman, I am a 1952 graduate of Lanier High School, and a 1986 retired teacher of the JPSD. I thoroughly enjoyed the convocation and I am encouraged that we have a good superintendent and that he will do a good job given the opportunity. I pledge my support to this effort. There are certain things that the graduates of Lanier are concerned about. At the proper time, we would like to address some of those concerns with you, Mr. Superintendent. Lanier is the oldest black high school in Jackson. We want it to continue to exist in the 'hood.'

VII Board File

Dr. Gray: I want to dig a little deeper and work a little harder. There are two parts to my report:

• We are preparing now for our test data and are waiting for the embargo to be unwrapped from the 'No child left behind initiative' that will be explained to the board and later to the public, especially our parents and students.

• Thanks to our guest who attended the convocation. Special thanks to our teacher of the year, Ms. Tonj a RobinsonMurphy, and the many other program participants. (The entire program was read by Dr. Gray.) We thank Dr. Watkins on behalf of Dr. Carolyn Myers, President of Jackson State University; my mentor and friend Dr. Willie w. Herenton and Dr. Jessie Jackson. Dr. Jackson left a charge with us. We were blessed by the benediction given by Dr. Jerry Young. Special thanks to Mr. Richard Williams, Director of Transportation for getting everyone safely and orderly to and from the convocation.

Finally, "We will repeat the six-point parent pledge. ( 1) take your child to school on the first day; (2) meet your child's teacher; (3) exchange phone numbers with your child's teacher; ( 4) turn off the television three hours each evening; (5) pick up your child's report card and (6) take your child to a place of worship once a week. I encourage all members of the Jackson Public School Family to do these things," Dr. Gray said.

August lOth is the first day of school. All of the executive leadership team members will be dispatched to all of the schools. I will be tweeting as we go along. I will make it to seven schools. Thank you Madam President that concludes the superintendent's Report.
