Schools in the local area have gone to a uniform policy for the upcoming fall season.

The North Panola School District and the Magnolia Heights School in Senatobia will implement the policies when the 2004-05 school year resumes.

Each school in the North Panola district voted on which color shirts to wear.

Green Hill will wear hunter green tops and khaki bottoms.

Como Elementary will wear white or light blue polo style tops and khaki or navy bottoms.

Como Middle School will wear burgundy or white polo style tops and khaki bottoms.

Crenshaw Elementary will wear white or navy blue polo style tops and khaki or navy bottoms.

North Panola High School will wear red or white polo style tops and khaki or navy bottoms.

The students can wear any kind of shoes, according to North Panola High School principal John Sullivan.

Parents are encouraged to contact school principals or PTO presidents for information concerning purchasing uniforms.

Magnolia Heights went to uniforms, according to a spokesperson, due to so many dress code violations.

The uniforms consists of navy or khaki pants along with shirts in the school colors: cardinal, navy or white.

The younger students can wear walking shorts, skorts or jumpers in the school colors.

The older students can wear light blue, navy or pale yellow Oxford type button down shirts.

In the winter, a sweater vest can be worn as long as there is a shirt underneath. Turtlenecks can be worn as long as it they are in school colors. Also if students wear a cardigan sweater all day it must be in the school colors. There are no uniform rules regarding overcoats in the winter.

Shoes for students in K3 through sixth grade must have a strap around the back. They can not be sliders or flip flops, but they can wear sandles.

The only requirement for place of purchase of uniforms for Magnolia Heights is that clothes must be purchased in the school uniform section of the store or catalog.

Stores who do and may carry uniform clothes in Panola and Tate Counties include the Fred’s stores, Wal-Mart, Stubbs and Vanity Fair at the Factory Outlet Stores.

"I am tired," Georgia Wilson said. "I am sick and tired of having to come before you."

Wilson told the supervisors she felt like she has been mistreated by the county because they have yet to finish work near her home.

"Your work crews did not finish the work they started in west Sardis," she said. "Well, the people of west Sardis are tired of being treated like dogs.

"If you keep treating us like dogs, you will know that these dogs are ready to bite," she said.

Wilson claims the county stopped working on projects in west Sardis in order to drain a sewage lagoon.

"Ya’ll went to work on a pond on private property," she said. "Why couldn’t you just finish with the work at my house before starting something else?"

Wilson said she believed a lot of her problems with the county stemmed from her firing by the county.

"Nobody ever told me why I was fired," she said. "The truth is I was fired because I knew too much about the stuff other people in the county were doing."

Wilson next challenged supervisor James Birge to be more vocal on the board.

"You are going to have to speak up and get the things done that you told us you would," she said.

"Why did you have some of the equipment in Como, but they told me it was south of the river," she asked. "Do people not know north from south?"

Changing targets again, Wilson took aim at Road Department Manager Lygunnah Bean because of dirt piled on her property.
