In 1983, a group of interested citizens met to explore the possibility of establishing a foundation for the Vicksburg Community Schools. As a result of their efforts, organizational by-laws were developed, approved, and the Vicksburg Community Schools Foundation was born. The Vicksburg Foundation, local businesses, civic groups, the school staff and private citizens have all been generous in their
support. As a result of their generosity, the Vicksburg Community Schools Foundation Board has been able to expend over $750,000 in support of innovative educational projects and programs.
