Coach is a really a great man. I truly appreciate all that he taught me during all my years at Cathedral. He'll definately be missed.

I would agree with incognito on the year 1998. That's the year I realized that coming back to Natchez to make a living was not an option. Tunica and Fayette are prime examples of schools that get a lot, but are still subpar.

Somebody needs to take a seriously hard stance, make some unpopular decisions and straighten out the school system. For those students that chose to work blue collar jobs, at least the system will provide a quality workforce. Industries are not going to come to Natchez with an unqualified labor force.

Granted the school system alone doesn't attract industry, but a good school system is in every good economy. Therefore, I feel it's a must to get the current system lined out.

Due to the poor education system in Natchez, the local economy will and has followed, while the rest of the nation's economy flourishes overall. Mississippi already has a terrible public school system compared to other states, but Natchez's is near the bottom of that barrel. I love Natchez, but along with most of my more ambitious friends, we had to move away to make a living. Does anybody know of a city that has a growing economy and poor public school system?
