Mississippi History Firsts On Thursday April 5 the ninth grade Mississippi History students were able to "have their cake and eat it too!"  Students decorated a cake in the shape of the state of Mississippi.  Each part decorated was edible!  After labeling items such as the Mississippi River and the Natchez Trace Parkway, students enjoyed a slice of their Mississippi cake project. They washed their cake down with a delicious bottled coke.  As you know, coke was first bottled in Vicksburg.  As you can imagine, the students really enjoyed this project.
