"The
DeSoto County School District is honored to
be a part of this very worthwhile program and
to have the opportunity to partner with our
friends and colleagues at Northwest Mississippi
Community College and The University of Mississippi.
"The DeSoto County School
District is the second largest and the fastest
growing school district in the state. We are
hiring approximately 150 new teachers a year
just to keep up with the growth! This new program
will assist our district in providing scholarships
to students planning on pursuing a career in
education. We are thrilled to have this opportunity
and honored to participate."
