The Greenville Public School District provides a balanced curriculum designed to educate all children in the community, from the most gifted to those with special educational needs. Emphasis is placed on basic skills, an opportunity for acceleration and enrichment, and preparation for college entrance and the world of work. The Mississippi Report Card for the 2001-2002 school year shows a GPSD graduation rate of 83.33%. That exceeds the state average of 80.52%.

Our commitment to excellence is demonstrated by: the honors program offered in the elementary schools, the advanced placement courses offered in the high school, the creation of an Elementary Enhancement School with challenge and enrichment curriculum for the district's gifted and underachieving students, the Challenge Curriculum for middle school students, the 127 Carnegie Units

offered, which exceeds Mississippi's required 32 units, Compensatory programs, and Special Education services. Each of the district's 11 elementary schools offers a Pre-K program

The GPSD provides computer labs throughout the district and 100% of the district's classrooms are internet accessible.
