Ed Board names Pulley to run JPS, if takeover happens

By: Magnolia Tribune - September 15, 2017

Margie Pulley set to run JPS, if takeover happens

The state Board of Education named Margie Pulley as interim superintendent for the Jackson Public Schools on Thursday, provided a state takeover of the district happens…

…Under Pulley’s leadership Tunica County was one of the few district to improve under a takeover.

Rated a D for the 2015 school year, Tunica schools improved to a successful C rating in 2016.

That turnaround earned Pulley praise from the state Board of Education.

Much of that improvement came from student growth in math and English.
