Mississippi's Education Achievement Council

2010 H.B. 1071 creates the Education Achievement Council, an entity that, while not called a P-20 council, has a membership and mission similar to many councils across the nation.

As stated in the legislation, the purpose of the council is "to sustain attention to the state's goal of increasing the educational attainment and skill levels of the state's working-age population benchmark to the national average by 2025." The 23 members of the council include K-12 and postsecondary leaders, legislative leaders, a representative of the governor's office, the president and CEO of the Mississippi Economic Council (the state chamber of commerce), and the executive director of the Mississippi Department of Mental Health.
