I know we have better lessons to teach the children of America than yesterdayβs violent scenes at the Capitol did. I ask all leaders to set an example by working to unify our democracy. Letβs do it together, but with resolve that this doesnβt have to be who we are.

State Health Officer Dr. Thomas Dobbs says 71 counties in Mississippi have reported COVID-19 cases within schools, although that doesn't mean they necessarily caught it there. There are 245 cases among teachers, 199 among students, with 589 teachers & 2,035 students quarantined.

βI learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.β β Nelson Mandela
This quote resonates today as students report in districts throughout MS. You can do this, educators!

Yesterday, Gov. Tate Reeves defended his decision to allow schools to reopen this week by praising the Lafayette County School District's reopening plan.
Today, a 42-year-old Lafayette County School District teacher died while self-quarantining with COVID-19 symptoms.
A 42-year-old Mississippi teacher died Thursday while self-quarantining with COVID-19 symptoms.
The tragedy stokes fears that an outbreak could occur in his district as students and teachers return to classrooms this week for the first time since March.
