38. That's true in a lot of places in north Miss.,

but not in south Miss. Most of the private schools in south Miss. are parochial schools. I graduated from a public school that was about 90% white.

People in the southern part of the state are always trying to get more funding for the public schools, but the funding often gets blocked by upstate legislators. Since their kids and grandkids are in private academies, they see public school funding as just another giveaway to the blacks. I wish south Miss. could secede from the rest of Miss., and I'm not alone.
