MSU President Mark E. Keenum poses for a picture after reading to third grade students at Henderson Ward Stewart Elementary School in Starkville. Keenum read “The Ant and the Grasshopper” during the February visit and gave the class a cowbell. MSU and the Starkville Oktibbeha School District have several unique collaborations, including the Partnership School on the MSU campus, which will serve all sixth and seventh grade students in the school district beginning in August.
