Summary:

Schools in Vicksburg, Mississippi are part of the Vicksburg Warren School District, serving approximately 6,243 students across 13 campuses — 9 elementary schools, 2 junior high schools, and 2 high schools — in a predominantly high-poverty district ranked 67th of 134 in Mississippi. The clear standout is Bovina Elementary, ranked 10th of 377 elementary schools statewide (97th percentile) despite 100% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch; Bovina exceeds state proficiency averages in every subject and grade, including 85.3% in 3rd grade math versus 48.8% statewide. Bowmar Avenue follows as the district's second-highest elementary (119th of 377), with the lowest chronic absenteeism in the district at 9.8% and notable strength in ELA and science.

At the secondary level, Warren Central High is the district's stronger high school, ranking 151st of 224 with a 93.5% graduation rate — above both district and state averages — and the district's best Algebra I proficiency at 54.7%. Vicksburg High School has shown dramatic improvement, rising from the 4th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 28th percentile in 2025-2026, with biology proficiency jumping from 35.6% to 63.3%. However, chronic absenteeism is a serious concern in secondary schools: Vicksburg Junior High and Warren Central Junior High both exceed 37%, Vicksburg High is at 53.5%, and the elementary average is about 17.2%.

The district's biggest academic vulnerability is math in upper elementary and middle school. For example, Vicksburg Intermediate posts just 29.0% proficiency in 5th grade math versus 49.6% statewide, Warren Central Intermediate has 26.6% in 4th grade math, and South Park Elementary shows 14.0% in 3rd grade math — a 71.3-point gap compared with Bovina's 85.3%. Feeder patterns also vary widely: Sherman Avenue Elementary and Warren Central Intermediate rank near the bottom, while Bovina proves that high poverty is not destiny. Both high schools graduate students above state averages, a bright spot, though below-average test proficiency suggests graduates may need additional support for college readiness.
