Thank you for all your prayers and help that has been sent this way.  I live
in Ocean Springs and teach at Gautier Middle School.  I was very blessed
that I lived on the north side of highway 90 and now have power, water, and
minimal damage compared to several of my friends on the south side of the
highway and in Biloxi, Gulfport, Gautier and Pascagoula.  I spoke with my
principal yesterday and there is not a real time frame yet set for when we
might go back.  I have heard Ocean Springs will try in four weeks.  I heard
other local districts on the coast may be six to eight weeks.  Hopefully by
the end of this week we will have a better idea of what we need for our
schools and students.

Thank you again for all the prayers.

Jeannie Steer

School has been out all this week because of power and water problems. We
hope to go back on Tuesday if trucks can get in to resupply the
cafeterias.... and if we have fuel for buses.
