The Attala County School Board approved to purchase the McAdams High School baseball team uniforms at the Monday night meeting. They had previously tabled the request to get more information.
Superintendent Larry Stevens asked the board to purchase the first five items on the list (uniforms) and not several other items including baseball shoes.
Board member Mack Willie Clark said the Ethel team got what they needed and that McAdams should get all the items that they need.
The board recently approved the purchase of two sets of uniforms for the EHS baseball team.
MHS Principal Katie Jamison said this wasn’t a competition between schools but for the board to give the school what they needed.
She said their uniforms had holes in them and they needed new ones so that they could represent the school well.
The board approved the following: January 4 meeting minutes, Consent agenda: activity and club accounts, bus easements for Stephanie Wingard and Roger Myers, facility use at Long Creek, Ethel and McAdams High School; donation of computers to EHS, financials, cancel the lease of Chapel Hill Hunting Club, easement for Resource Management Timber Co. on Section 16-14-9, school calendar for the upcoming school year and hire Bertha Moore as a long-term substitute at McAdams High School as an English teacher with Rusty Dees voted against the hire.
