Supes to continue school consolidation talks today
School consolidation discussions will continue today at the Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors’ recess meeting at the county courthouse.
A new round of talks, placed on the agenda by District 2 Supervisor Orlando Trainer, is scheduled for 6:05 p.m. but could be pushed up or back due to the nature of how quickly the board attends to other business. The meeting begins at 5:30 p.m.
