These were pictures taken at McLaurin Elementary School in Natchez, MS (Principal Mrs. A. Morrison, PTA President-Mrs. D. Clark) on October 19, 2009.

MS-PTA President Deloris Irving addressed the group of 30 ministers, administrative staff, parent liaison, and teachers, giving an overview of PTA's history, its vision and mission, and explained the importance of community involvement in the education process. After a guided tour of the classrooms (escorted by students), the ministers had lunch in the cafeteria. In the final phase of this day, the ministers returned to the library, established themselves as a Ministers Mentoring Team, selected a chair (Pastor Leroy White) and co-chair (Pastor Melvin White) and determined to meet regularly at this school to assist as directed by the principal and PTA.
