Humphreys County-MS Achievement School District
Humphreys County-ASD’s state funding for the 2020-2021 school year is $847,850 below the amount required by state law. Statewide, the Mississippi Adequate Education Program (MAEP), which funds teacher salaries and classrooms, is underfunded by $250,379,812.
This is the 13th consecutive year that Mississippi has underfunded its public schools. Since 2008, the last time the MAEP was fully funded, students in Humphreys County have been shorted a total of $10,542,896. During this same period, Mississippi has raised its academic standards significantly, yet public schools have been denied the resources needed to meet those standards.
