JACKSON, Miss. (AP) Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves on Tuesday announced nine nominations to three boards that govern public education from kindergarten through college.
The nominees must be confirmed by the state Senate. Reeves made the nominations after some vacancies had occurred because members terms had expired a situation that meant boards could lack a quorum to conduct business if too many members missed meetings.
Six of the nominees are white men. Two are white women, and one is a Black woman.
In a news release, the Republican governor said improving achievement at all levels of education is critical to Mississippi s long-term success. He said he is confident that the nominees “have the credentials and unique and diverse experiences to help us continue improving Mississippi’s education system in a way that prioritizes students above all else.”
