Tucker Elementary School

Located at 126 East Tucker Circle in Philadelphia, Mississippi, Tucker Elementary School operates as an active, single-school public school district serving children from kindergarten through eighth grade. Set within a distant rural geographic setting, the district provides a focused, community-centered learning environment for elementary and middle-grade students. The student body currently consists of 119 enrolled learners—comprising 58 female and 61 male students—all of whom identify as American Indian, reflecting the school's deep connection to the Choctaw Tribal Schools network and the surrounding indigenous community. By offering a continuous academic pathway across these foundational grades, the district ensures a cohesive educational transition for young learners in the area.

To foster student success, the district maintains an exceptionally strong staffing infrastructure relative to its enrollment size. Tucker Elementary utilizes approximately 39 full-time equivalent certified teachers, supported by 13 instructional aides and more than 62 support staff members, bringing the total district workforce to over 114 full-time equivalent personnel. This dedicated team allows for extraordinarily small class sizes, highly personalized instruction, and comprehensive wrap-around services tailored to individual learning needs. Families, prospective students, and educational researchers looking to learn more about the district's programs can connect through the Choctaw Tribal Schools web portal or contact the campus directly.
