From a Millsaps College news release that I’ll mention on next Monday’s Education page:
LOCAL PRINCIPAL ATTENDS PRINCIPALS’ SUMMER INSTITUTE AT MILLSAPS COLLEGE
JACKSON, Miss.– More than 80 elementary, middle school and high school principals and administrators from across the state participated in the Principals’ Summer Institute at Millsaps College from June 8-13.
Shelly Brooks, assistant principal at Plantersville Middle School participated in the program.
The institute, which began in 1993, is the vision of a group of Mississippi principals who attended the Harvard Principals’ Summer Institute. The institute is committed to the personal and professional growth of principals as educational leaders in order to improve the quality of education.
