ANDERSON v. SCHOOL BOARD OF MADISON COUNTY Print Font size: A A Reset United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit. Joan ANDERSON, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. SCHOOL BOARD OF MADISON COUNTY, Defendant-Appellee. No. 06-60902. Decided: February 11, 2008 Before JONES, Chief Judge, and DeMOSS and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
