School Board Member Recognition Week

Join the Aberdeen School District to celebrate School Board Member Recognition Week in Mississippi.  The Aberdeen School District will join other districts across the state to thank school board members during School Board Member Recognition Week, February 10th through the 16th, for their leadership and service to local school districts and communities.

 This week is a special opportunity to express our gratitude for the hard work of our school board members and to thank them for their dedication to this community and its children.  More than 750 Mississippians are members of local school boards.  The board members who server on Aberdeen School Board are responsible for setting the vision and goals for the district.  They work to provide a quality education for ASD K-12 students.  The school board also hires quality educators, sets district goals, adopts policies, and evaluates progress while keeping the interests of our students first.  They also serve as the community’s voice in the school district and the district’s voice in the community.  As school leaders, board members play an important role in engaging our community in supporting our public schools.   During School Board Member Recognition Week in Mississippi, the Aberdeen School District invites students, staff, community members, and the general public to take part in honoring board members.  The men and women serving ASD are:  James Edward, President, Patrick Locket, Secretary, Sandra Peoples, Tony Oliver and Roger Scott.
