Starkville Oktibbeha Consolidated School District welcomed Reverend Jessie King, Superintendent of Leland School District, as keynote speaker for 2025 Winter Convocation.

"The odds may be great, but you are greater," said Reverend Jessie King as he spoke to Yellow Jacket staff on Monday. "You are the change. You are the hope. You are the reason that the next generation will thrive." Overcoming the odds was the theme as Yellow Jacket teachers, administrators and classroom support staff gathered for the Starkville Oktibbeha Consolidated School District Winter Convocation on Monday, ahead of the start of a new semester.

Zariyah Edwards

Affectionately known as "Big Z" to the Jacket faithful, Zariyah Edwards has a heart and personality that are just as big as her presence on the basketball court. I found that out from the moment I sat down with the senior Starkville High School power forward. And now, she's added to her list of accolades, taking a "big" statewide honor into the start of this season's division play.
