Mississippi’s education success, known as the Mississippi Miracle, is often misunderstood as the result of one decision. However, officials emphasize it stems from a series of reforms passed and implemented over time.
A chapter in the book Do What Works features insights from Governor Tate Reeves and Dr. Carey Wright, the former Mississippi Superintendent of Education. They detail how the state’s education gains were achieved through collaborative efforts and strategic reforms.
The chapter highlights the importance of sustained policy changes and leadership in transforming Mississippi’s education system, according to sources familiar with the book.
