Summary

A full-time public servant of a state agency which funds charter schools is not necessarily prohibited from serving as the executive director of a charter school. Due to the limited scope of the public servant’s job duties with the state agency, no violation of Section 25-4-105, Miss. Code of 1972, is likely to arise. However, the public servant and the state agency should seriously consider whether both positions can be reconciled with the public policy codified in Section 25-4-101.
