Morgigno next interim MS ed supt

The Mississippi State Board of Education has selected its next interim state superintendent of education, Ray Morgigno, executive director of the East Mississippi Center for Educational Development in Meridian. 

He will assume the post July 1 and succeeds Mike Kent, who was appointed to serve as interim through June 30. 

Kent was appointed after Mississippi’s Senate voted against confirming veteran educator Robert P. Taylor as state superintendent. 

The Board says it plans to select a candidate for the permanent position before the end of 2023. That candidate would then need to be confirmed by the state Senate in 2024. (Meridian Star 06/15/23)
