AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Education & Schools: Mississippi lawmakers are weighing plans to close or consolidate schools in more than a quarter of districts, with the state superintendent urging savings by shutting individual buildings rather than dissolving whole districts. Child Well-Being: New KIDS COUNT data keeps Mississippi at 16th for education but ranks the state last overall for child well-being, citing weaker health, economic well-being, and family/community outcomes. Public Safety: Two brothers were arrested after a manhunt tied to the shooting of a Covington County deputy; the deputy was reported in stable condition after life-threatening injuries. Community & Culture: Poplarville Public Library launched its 2026 summer reading program, “Unearth a Story,” with free signups and activities for all ages. Business & Growth: Roy Anderson Corp won an about $114 million contract for the University of Mississippi’s Jones Hall project, a new four-story academic facility expected to start in June 2026. Health Services: The American Red Cross is running blood drives across the Mississippi Coast to address an early summer shortage. Local Economy: A downtown Jackson op-ed pushes back on claims the city is “desolate,” pointing to recent events and new businesses.
