Overview: The recent Jackson School Board meeting was dominated by discussions of student achievements, the retirements of personnel, and the impact of a recently rejected tax increase proposal. Superintendent Nicole Pormilli led the meeting, which featured reports from representatives from Liberty and Memorial High Schools, detailing their various activities, initiatives, and accomplishments. The retirement acknowledgments included Miss Richardson, the long-serving business administrator and board of education secretary, and Cindy Sherman, a security officer. The meeting also touched on the district’s financial situation, given the failure of a recent special question that sought to increase taxes for educational improvements.
