SUMMARY: Law enforcement in two Pine Belt communities are seeing an increase in runaway teen cases. Authorities work with social media to locate missing teens, as it can be a dangerous situation. The process involves determining if the teen is missing or has run away, gathering information, and contacting law enforcement immediately if foul play is suspected. Departments work closely with youth court systems to provide services to juveniles, aiming to help rather than punish. Parents are urged to call authorities if their child goes missing, as prompt action can help ensure the teen's safety. Both departments stress the importance of community involvement in locating runaway teens.

Significant accomplishments from past meetings include securing over $20 million for the local airport and various community projects. The lieutenant governor emphasized the need for residents to feel safe, particularly referencing a recent tragic event in Meridian. He proposed stronger measures for parole enforcement and expanding skill training for convicts to prevent recidivism. Improving these areas, he believes, is crucial for sustained positive growth in the community.

SUMMARY: Mia Public Schools has approved a dual credit program agreement with William Carey University in Hattiesburg, expanding their existing dual credit initiatives. This program allows high school students to earn college credits at a reduced rate while still in high school, providing a significant advantage. The district also encourages student participation in dual enrollment programs with other institutions like MCC. This initiative is part of NPSD's broader strategy to foster partnerships with multiple universities, giving students ample opportunities for advanced education. Additionally, there's a brief mention of drivers in Thea County, but details are cut off.
