Please reconsider closing a school with this great legacy. It is not only a school, but the history that it imparted will never be duplicated. This school is the only truly predominately African American school in Utica, Mississippi. Closing it will be a great lost for our community.
I graduated from Hinds A.H.S in 1989. My brother and sister followed me years later then years after them my kids graduated from the very same school. Hinds AHS has been a scholastic tradition within my family. Please reconsider closing because this school is a historical landmark for us who attended.
This was the place where I began to learn many of the things that made me the woman I am today! With that being said, I'll forever be indebted to the administration, staff, & student body of the years 2000-2004 because they made an impact on my life! Furthermore they motivated me to want to be a positive influence on other individuals around me. All in all, this school taught me and I'm sure several others, what it meant to have morals and values so PLEASE DO NOT PREVENT IT FROM MAKING A DIFFERENCE in another persons' life. Miss Hinds A.H.S. 2003-2004
Hinds is a wonderful school .The majority of my family ( including myself ) have attended the school. I enjoy supporting the school. Going to the football games and track meetings . All my daughter talks about is how she is going to attend Hinds.One of my daughter already attend and she's learning everday. Please SAVE HINDS A.H.S besides if hinds were to close Raymond would get overcrowded and fights would happen everyday . It's all Utica have
I had two kids to come through this school. Both work for USDA-NRCS. I just enrolled my son there. This school helped both my daughters suceed. Please save Hinds A.H.S.
Close Raymond High School or force the Kids to stay in their respected school zone. Just 50 years ago Hinds A.H.S was the life line for many rural hinds county young peoples. Hinds County public school district has figure it out more students pass or fail, more money from Federal Government. It all about the money. I faulted the parents from these small communities Edwards, Bolton, and Utica.
Class of '89.....This learning institution has had a great influence on my life; please reconsider.

I went to hinds ahs 1979 when no other school would accept me because I transferred from out of town. They really made a huge difference in my life.
