Welcome to the Vicksburg Community Schools.
We are glad you are taking the time to get to know us, and we look forward to knowing and working with you. Whether you are a student, parent, employer, community member, prospective employee, or an interested citizen, we are eager to share with you our commitment to teaching and learning and our joy in serving children.
A strong tradition of excellence and achievement characterizes Vicksburg's school programs, our staff, and most notably, our students. Vicksburg parents have high aspirations for their children. Together, we work to provide programs and services, which will help each child, reach their potential and enjoy success. Parents, staff, and students alike, have come to think of Vicksburg as a winning team.
As you look through this website, you will get a snapshot of the Vicksburg Community Schools. We invite you, also, to visit our schools in person, talk with us, and become part of the Vicksburg Community Schools Family.
