Partnership School Tour
Leaders from Mississippi State and the Starkville Oktibbeha School District toured the new Partnership Middle School on Friday [July 31] in advance of the school's planned opening in August. The 128,000-square-foot facility will serve all sixth and seventh graders in the school district and includes space for MSU classrooms where future teachers will be trained in a hands-on environment.
