CLARKSDALE — Riding around the city where he makes a living as an attorney, businessman and entrepreneur, Bill Luckett mentions the college term paper he wrote about Mississippi’s low educational ranking back in 1968 and laments that the state’s ranking “hasn’t risen much in the 40-year interim.”
In Coahoma County, the Coahoma County School District is rated as “failing” by the state. The Clarksdale Municipal School District is rated as “at risk of failing” along with the Coahoma County Agricultural High School.
