State Sen. Mike Chaney of Vicksburg reads from the book “Clifford the Big Red Dog” to Paige Morgan’s kindergarten class at Sherman Avenue Elementary School Monday morning. The reading was part of the national “Legislators Back to School Week.” Throughout the week, Legislators across the nation are visiting local classrooms to help students understand the legislative process and to build links between schools and state government.(Brian Loden The Vicksburg Post)
