Quitman School District

Located at 104 East Franklin Street in Quitman, Mississippi, the Quitman School District serves as a primary educational pillar for its local community. Operating as an active, non-charter public school system within a rural remote setting in the greater Meridian area, the district encompasses six operational schools structured to support learners at every stage of development. Its comprehensive academic structure spans from pre-kindergarten through the 12th grade, while also accommodating specialized post-secondary transition pathways up through grade 13 as well as ungraded educational offerings. Families and researchers seeking district information can reach administration directly at (601) 776-2186 or explore online resources through the district’s official website.

The district supports a student body of 1,459 learners, maintaining a balanced demographic makeup that closely reflects the region. The student population includes 834 Black, 593 White, 23 multiracial, seven Hispanic, and two American Indian students, with a nearly equal gender distribution of 736 male and 723 female students. Grade-level cohorts remain consistent throughout the elementary, middle, and secondary levels, generally averaging between 90 and 130 students per grade. While current federal records report instructional and support staffing figures at zero—a status typically reflecting administrative non-reporting or pending data reconciliation for the reporting cycle—the district continues its core mission of delivering accessible, community-focused public education across its campuses.
