Congratulations
Scott Central
Congratulations to my Alma Mata, Jackson State University for winning 24 to Alcorn 10. Jackson State University ranks with 10 wins and one loss. Alcorn State University ranks 6 wins and 5 losses. The game was played in Jackson on last Saturday evening. The speculation of who wins between Jackson State University and Alcorn is over. Jackson State University is the winner. Congratulations to Coach Prime on instigating a well-oiled team to win these games.
Congratulations to Scott Central Attendance Center on winning their football game (60-14) against Newton High School last Friday night.
I received the honor of attending my grandson’s Thanksgiving dinner for the kindergarten class at Newton Elementary School. Xhavier Shepard was glad to see his grandma come and escort him to lunch and sit at the table and eat lunch with him. The food was good. While I was there at the elementary school I saw Adam Shepard as he was changing classes. It was a day of grandma enjoying grandchildren.
Adam Shepard, Inny Shepard and Khaleb Shepard were glad to see their maternal grandparents (Ditto and Nana) from Seattle Washington this week. They will be here vising for a few days.
Many thank yous go to Crudup Ward and their monthly give away. When someone is donating their time and money to help others, they are to be commended for their good deeds.
Other thank yous go to Superintendent Bobby Henson and MSN Doris Henson who gave away Thanksgiving bags on last Monday from 12:00-5:00 p.m. at the Outreach Center in Walnut Grove. Again, Thank You.
