• School districts honor top students

The Marshall County School District and the Holly Springs School District hosted an ACT Luncheon on March 24 at Annie’s Restaraunt to honor students in grades 10-12 who had high ACT scores and who had already received scholarship offers based on those scores.

Jerry Moore, instructional services director for the MCSD, spoke to students prior to their meal – congratulating and thanking them for taking advantage of the educational programs offered by the two school districts.

Dr. Germain McConnell, associate dean of the School of Educaton at Ole Miss, closed the luncheon with a motivational speech entitled “Never Be Satisfied,” noting that “even if one has high ACT scores, this does not mean they should squander learning opportunities.”

Top honors went to Tess Hill and Sean Maness, both scoring a 30 on the ACT.

The MCSD and HSSD would like to thank these students for their dedication to academics and Annie’s Restaraunt for hosting the event.
