The mission of the Yazoo City Public School District is to educate all children to their highest potential through
dedicated, qualified teachers, a strong, innovative focus on learning, supportive administrators and staff,
community involvement, and a safe, nurturing environment.
The School Board is committed to excellence and self-evaluation and believes that Yazoo County Schools exist to meet the educational needs of students. It is, therefore, important that citizens may express their expectations of the schools. The Board encourages students, parents, teachers, and other community members to participate in educational planning for the district. Yazoo County School District recognizes that each child is an individual; that all children are creative; that all children need to succeed. Therefore, Yazoo County Schools respect the individual needs of children and emphasize the social, emotional, physical and intellectual development of each child .
