QISD board adopts readiness curriculum
The Quitman ISD school board approved a request from Quitman High School Principal Justin Cowart Monday to pay $12,500 for the purchase of Mastery Prep College Career and Military Readiness curriculum for high school students.
The board approved waivers for two teachers who are working toward state certification. They are high school math teacher Hannah McKinney and junior high art instructor Karen Watts. Both are in programs leading to certification and each will test to gain certification during this school year.
Superintendent Rhonda Turner honored district administrators. “October is National Principal Recognition Month and we have all of our principals and assistant principals here today,” Turner said. “They are all doing a great job. Each of our campuses are thriving and moving forward.”
Those administrators are as follows: QHS, Principal Justin Cowart and assistant Kelli Fortner; QJHS, Principal Chrystal Ballard and assistant Bryan Hurst; and QES, Principal Brittany Eldred and assistants Ashley Day and Lance Morrow.
Turner reported enrollment had dropped to 1,196 which includes almost 600 students on the elementary campus with the high school having 362 students as of Oct. 18.
During time for student recognition Quitman Elementary School students in the STEM program gave a brief presentation on what they are doing in class.
