Jim Ingram: Recipient of the Mickey Linder Spirit Award

"Starting school from 1st grade to 12th grade at TPSD was a positive start/ positive journey for me. I am also blessed and pleased that my daughter, Jennifer, graduated from THS in 2004 and my son, Jamie, graduated from THS in 2009.
I love that Jamie is currently in his 12th year teaching  at Tupelo High School.  Jamie has taught Social Studies in the past and currently teaches US History.

TPSD is a place where I felt secure and made lifelong friends. Tupelo Public School District is “ Home” to me."

The Miller Family: Jason-AD, Shelly-Soccer Coach, Drew, Dylan, and Davis-Student Athletes

"TPSD has been a special part of our family's story for nearly 30 years. My wife and I graduated in 1997 and athletics was a big part of experience here. Now, getting to watch Davis, Dylan, and Drew wear the blue and gold and compete for the same school we graduated from is hard to put into words. Click for the Rest of the Story

Stewart McMillan, Alumni, Henry and Jack, Students

Being a TPSD student gave me the opportunity to have a high quality education and top notch extra curricular opportunities. Our strong public schools was a major reason to move back home. My children, Henry, Jack and Gracie, will continue to attend a district committed to excellence with added focus on authentic career connections.
