JPS parents concerned about middle school consolidation
SUMMARY: Two middle schools in Jackson, Mississippi, Whitten and Peebles, are set to merge following an investigation into testing irregularities. The consolidation will address staffing shortages and allow for ongoing renovations. The two schools will remain in the same building but will be separated for core classes, sports, and other activities. Concerns have been raised about potential conflicts between students from the rival schools. The superintendent assures that there are policies in place to handle any fights and efforts are made to help students make better choices. The consolidation is expected to be temporary, but a re-evaluation of all facilities and needs will take place in November.
