    FORENSICS TEAM
     Do you like to talk? Act? Compete? Are you looking for a challenge? Do you enjoy meeting students from other schools in a competitive situation? Would you like to represent your school in a non-athletic activity but one that is highly rewarding? Would you like a chance to earn scholarship money useful for college? If your answers to these questions are “yes” then forensics (speech and debate) is an activity to which you should give serious consideration.

    Students who are interested in becoming members for the 2013-2014 school year need to stop by Ms. Ballard’s room
    B156 and sign up for further information!

  • TITAN CAR TAGS

    Are you looking for a way to display your Titan Pride?  Consider putting a Titan tag on your vehicle.  For the additional cost of $31 you can advertise your pride everywhere you go!  And better still, $24 will be contributed to the Titan Pride Booster Club. You may obtain your tag in one of two ways:  when it is time to renew your tag, go in person to the Madison County Tax Collector's office and request a Titan Tag or you may go in person at a non-renewal time and ask to trade in your current tag for the Titan Tag upgrade for $31.  I've got mine ... hope you will join me in this easy way to show your Titan Pride.

  • WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
    Everyone has a story. For some, their story is filled with suffering, pain, or simply not caring anymore. For many, prescription medicines, pot, alcohol, and other substances to help them handle the pain and add some excitement to life.
      If you have experimented with drugs or alcohol and are interested in learning new ways of experiencing true happiness, real relationships, and lasting peace, please contact me at the ARK. I will schedule a free confidential meeting and assessment in which we can discuss your story and how this program can provide a life-changing experience for you. The ARK is an outpatient substance abuse program for teens and is a part of Mississippi Children’s Home Services. In our program you will still live at home and go to your school. If you are a parent seeking help for your child you can call as well. My name is Will McNeese and I’m the outpatient therapist for the ARK. You can call me at 601.709.1353 or email me at william.mcneese@mchscares.org to schedule a meeting.
