2021-2022 JPS Employee Calendar VISION – MISSION – CORE VALUES Vision At Jackson Public Schools, we prepare scholars to achieve globally, to contribute locally, and to be fulfilled individually. Mission At Jackson Public Schools, we develop scholars through world-class learning experiences to attain an exceptional knowledge base, critical and relevant skill sets, and the necessary dispositions for great success. Core Values At Jackson Public Schools, we believe in the importance of equity, excellence, growth mindset, relationships, relevance, and positive and respectful cultures. • Equity Our vision of equity, put simply, is "all means all." We ensure equity by celebrating each scholar's individuality, interests, abilities and talents; providing each scholar in each school with equitable access to high-quality instruction, courses, and resources; and holding high expectations for all scholars to graduate college-ready and career-minded. Similarly, we recognize and value the individual abilities, experiences and talents of our staff; providing all staff with equitable access to opportunities for development and growth; and ensuring that such opportunities are provided through clear and transparent processes. • Excellence High expectations for our scholars help to prepare them for college and career paths. High expectations from and for all adults foster ownership, consistency, and transparency. Every member of our district performs with an attention to detail and the quality that each task demands in order to achieve great outcomes. • Growth Mindset Our leaders—scholars and staff—thrive in environments where belief in their abilities is affirmed. Everyone in the organization embraces the ideal that effort and perseverance lead to success. • Relationships It is essential to develop relationships through mutual respect of culture, social context, and community. This allows us to create a community of safety, trust, productive vulnerability, and genuine connection as we celebrate successes and value opportunities for constructive feedback. • Relevance Scholars experience relevant education that is engaging, motivating, and inspiring, leading to a lifelong commitment to learning. Our scholars must learn to connect with each other, the larger community, and the 21st-century world, ultimately developing agency to contribute to positive change in Jackson, in Mississippi, and in the world. • Positive & Respectful Cultures Scholars and staff thrive in learning environments where growth and achievement are the highest priorities and climates are safe, positive, and respectful. These environments engage and excite all scholars, leaving them hungry for more knowledge. All adults contribute to a positive and respectful culture allowing them to experience more productivity, increased retention, and joy at work.

  • William Belton Murrah: President of Millsaps College and Southern Bishop in America’S Progressive Era
    Methodist History, 45:4 (July 2007) WILLIAM Belton MURRAH: PRESIDENT OF MILLSAPS COLLEGE AND SOUTHERN BISHOP IN AMERICA’S PROGRESSIVE ERA GERALD F. VAUGHN We live in an auspicious era! We live on a grand continent! In the mighty impulse that throbs in every department of human enterprise we may see the prophecy of more brilliant achievements than the past has ever yet recorded. But this prophecy is to have its fulfillment only when a thoroughly equipped scholarship shall come to the front and assert its right and power to lead in all great movements. W. B. Murrah, Inaugural Address, President, Millsaps College, 1892-1910 William Belton Murrah (1851-1925), one of the most distinguished Methodist educators and bishops in the South during America’s Progressive Era (roughly between 1890 and 1920), was an organizer and administrator rather than theologian. His life and ministry were dedicated to the growth of southern Methodism and he applied his organizational and administra- tive skills wherever needed most. So keen was his interest in higher educa- tion and so acute were his organizational and administrative skills, that he advanced the cause of Methodist higher education in the South more than anyone before him. Murrah was born in Pickensville, Alabama, to the Rev. Dr. William and Mary Susan (Cureton) Murrah. He graduated in 1874 from Southern University, then one of the finest institutions in the South, where he stud- ied not only arts and science, but also law and was a charter member of Southern’s first fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha. Alfred F. Smith, familiar with Southern’s reputation, wrote, “Throughout his student years he was receiv- ing not only the intellectual enlargement which comes from a study of the classics, philosophy, history, and all that goes to the enlargement of the mind, but sitting under the inspiration of the mightiest men in the denomination, he was also imbibing the spirit of the Church.”2 Among those scholars were Allen S.
