Partnership Middle School Principal Jorine Neal will serve on the Mississippi Principal Advisory Council (MPAC)for the 2022-2023 school year.
Neal is one of 32 highly regarded education professionals from across the state selected by the Mississippi Department of Education to serve on the MPAC for the 2022-23 school year.
The MPAC, formed in 2021, now includes 45 principals representing schools in urban and rural settings. The MPAC aims to empower principals to discuss topics critical to their success as administrators and to share suggestions on how MDE can assist. In addition, members will provide feedback on a variety of MDE initiatives.
“Hearing directly from Mississippi principals is essential to better understand what achievements and challenges they experience at their respective schools,” said Dr. Kim Benton, state superintendent of education, interim. “I look forward to meeting all MPAC members soon to assess their needs and share MDE resources that can improve student outcomes.”
