FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | September 23, 2025

Meridian, Miss. – Meridian High School senior Jaden Mosley has been selected to serve on the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE) State Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council for the 2025–26 school year. Mosley is one of 114 members of the 2025-2025 State Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council (SAC), which was announced on Monday, September 22, 2025. The council includes students in grades 11-12 and college freshmen attending a Mississippi college or university.

“Jaden’s selection is a tremendous honor and a reflection of her leadership, dedication, and voice for students,” said Dr. Amy Carter, Superintendent of the Meridian Public School District. “We are proud to see her represent Meridian High School and our community at the state level.”

All students come from different backgrounds, school size and regions in Mississippi and will be able to share their opinions and offer advice about educational opportunities and policy in Mississippi with Dr. Lance Evans, state superintendent of education.

“I am extremely excited to represent our district and take action toward the future for our state’s public school students,” said Mosley. 

Each fall, the MDE opens applications for new members and students are required to write a compelling cover letter, submit a resume and provide answers to questions about their interest in the SAC, their accomplishments, educational concerns, and academic goals. MDE received nearly 200 applications for membership to this year’s council.

The council’s purpose is to provide a forum for Mississippi’s students to offer diverse perspectives to the State Superintendent of Education. The students will act as liaisons between MDE and public-school students from across the state.

Meridian High School Principal Sherrod Miller added, “Jaden has shown great leadership and commitment to excellence. We know she will make meaningful contributions to the council.”
