Superintendent Becky Fisher said she is ready to implement a new vision to revitalize the Yazoo County School District.
Entering her second month as leader of the district, Fisher has made several announcements within the community over the last few weeks to show what direction she would like to take the district.
“Change has to happen,” Fisher said, at a recent PTO meeting. “If you stay stagnant, you don’t grow. Things happen for a reason.”

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
