Katie Belle Herrington, an 8th grade student of Pelahatchie High School, was recently selected to become a member of the Mississippi Public Broadcasting Student Council. MPB Student Council is a diverse group of middle and high school students in grades 8th-11th from across the state of Mississippi. Members receive hands-on career training, civic engagement opportunities, increase social and media literacy skills, and lend their voices to Mississippi’s progress. Students actively serve as a liaison for MPB to their peers statewide. Their primary project is the production of a podcast that focuses on topics of interest to their unique generation. Council members are responsible for sharing new knowledge from involvement in various aspects of the agency’s departments, programs, and services.
