They are happy to report that they had 85% of their seniors go to college in the Fall of 2024! The students who did not enroll in college either enlisted in military service or gained employment.
Spring enrollment looks good with just a few days before classes start with headcount up 8% and course enrollments up 9%.
The new building project in Jackson is moving forward with plans to “move dirt” imminently. Expect a news release out on that any day.
