Alive Learns to Potty" dolls on May 1st as a class project. Class members are asked to focus on being responsible
for the wants and needs of a dependant being. These battery powered baby girls are able to talk, sing, play, eat, drink,
and potty. Each class member is supplied a potty, diapers, bottles, dishes, spoons, food, juice, and wipes. Decorated
bed boxes are individually labeled in the newly set up daycare center at the school. Charts are clipped to each bed
and have to be filled in with arrival times, times of subsequent checks throughout the school day, class time feeding, cleaning,
and changing. Departure for home will be the last entry each day. If left with a responsible "sitter",
slips have to be signed by the sitter and turned in by the "parent". Bed times will also be noted each
night and reported the following morning. The babies have to be awakened from sleep mode before they are returned to
the the daycare each morning. Being allowed to go to the cafeteria each day with their "parent" will be a
special treat for the toddlers. Many aunts, step-parents, and other relatives will be needed to hold and entertain the
babies while their parent eats. All the participants should have a good attitude which will make this assignment fun,
but at the same time provide them with a learning experience they will carry with them forever.

Economic Council's M. B. Swayze Educational Foundation, sponsor of the STAR program. J. D. is the son of David and
Julianna Wynne. He is a member of the MPSA Honor Society, where he served as Vice President this year. He was

on April 16 at the Jackson Convention Center in downtown Jackson. This prestigious event is co-sponsored by Entergy Mississippi,
AT&T, Mississippi Power Company, BancorpSouth, and Trustmark National Bank. STAR Students are selected on the basis of academic excellence. Both American College Test scores
and scholastic averages are compared to determine the school's STAR Student, explained Vickie Powell of Jackson, Vice
President, Foundation Programs. "The STAR program encourages and promotes academic achievement among Mississippi's
high school seniors," she said. Each
STAR Student is asked to designate a STAR Teacher, the classroom teacher who has made the greatest contribution to the student's
scholastic achievement. Kristi L. Hager
was designated STAR Teacher. Mrs. Hager has been teaching for a total of 16 years and has received the honor of Star
Teacher for 5 years. Over 500 STAR Students
and STAR Teachers will receive recognition from MEC's Swayze Foundation at the Celebration. The top 20 STAR Students --
the ALL-STAR Scholars -- and their STAR Teachers will be presented scholarship awards provided by the Kelly Gene Cook, Sr.
Charitable Foundation. The highlight of the Education Celebration will be the naming of the Mississippi STAR Student for 2009,
winner of the coveted $24,000 Cook Foundation scholarship.
