HONORING Edith Harris
The Panola County Debutant proudly recognizes Mrs. Edith Harris as this year’s distinguished honoree. Mrs. Harris, a retired educator with an impressive career spanning 37 years, is celebrated not only for her contributions to education but also for her visionary leadership in the community. In 1992, she co-founded the ASU Panola County Debutant Cotillion alongside her dear friend, the late Mrs. Norva D. Kitchens. Together, these two remarkable women devoted countless hours to mentoring young ladies, instilling in them the values of grace, confidence, and excellence. Their dedication created a lasting legacy that continues to inspire generations.
A proud graduate of Alcorn State University, Class of 1966, Mrs. Harris forged lifelong bonds during her time there. It was at Alcorn that she met Mrs. Kitchens, beginning a friendship that endured until Mrs. Kitchens’s passing, as well as her husband, Mr. James W. Harris, with whom she has shared 57 years of marriage. Their union was blessed with two children, Marissa Harris Lester and the late Brett Harris, three grandsons, and one great Mrs. Harris began her teaching career in the North Panola School District, where she served at Greenhill for 17 years. She later continued her vocation in the South Panola School District, dedicating 20 years to shaping young minds before retiring. Even in retirement, her commitment to service remained steadfast. As an active and lifetime member of the Panola County Alcorn State University Alumni Chapter, she played a pivotal role in advancing its mission. Recognizing the need for etiquette training, exposure to HBCU life, and networking opportunities for young women, Mrs. Harris and Mrs. Kitchens established the Debutant Cotillion Ball. With the support of the Panola County ASU Alumni, the Cotillion quickly became the chapter’s most successful fundraiser and a cherished tradition from 1992 to 2006.
Mrs. Harris’s impeccable eye for detail, her guidance, and her unwavering dedication ensured the Cotillion’s success and enriched the lives of countless young women. Her contributions exemplify the highest standards of service, mentorship, and community leadership.
Today, we proudly salute Mrs. Edith Harris an educator, founder, mentor, and inspiration whose legacy will endure for generations to come.
