CLINTON — Clinton’s public schools have a long-standing tradition of partnering with local businesses on a variety of projects and events.

“These relationships are always mutually beneficial,” said Dr. Phil Burchfield, superintendent. “When parents and teachers see a business supporting their school, they want to support that business in return. Partnerships like this help keep our community strong.”

The Leadership Greater Jackson Board of Trustees and the Greater Jackson Chamber Partnership Board of Directors recently presented the 25th class of Leadership Greater Jackson.

Established in 1987, Leadership Greater Jackson is sponsored by the Greater Jackson Chamber Partnership.

The program seeks to identify and prepare the community’s future leadership. The
objective is to build and maintain a network of current and merging leaders who possess the skills and the sense of commitment to improve the community.
