Notes:

For thirty years, the Gulfport School District has lengthened its vision to include parents and other adults in the community. This program began in 1979, under the leadership of the Superintendent, Dr. Mercer Miller.

Gulfport was a pioneer in establishing the first Literacy Program in Mississippi and individuals, businesses, and organizations have referred students to this Reading Program through the years. No other Adult Education Program in the State has earned a better reputation for success in providing one-on-one instruction to adults who cannot read.

Community Education served as an umbrella for vocational courses, recreation and enrichment, adult education, GED preparation, a GED testing center, and a literacy program that served adults below the 4th grade level. The program matches needs in the community with resources in the community.

Community Education is a unique public relations tool and has provided an immeasurable amount of community good will for the School System. Thousands of citizens have earned job skills and are successful in the workplace as a direct result of this program. Lives have been enriched and tax dollars have been stretched as citizens personally used the schools that their tax dollars supported. Our world is a better place because the Gulfport School District believes in lifelong education.

Go south on Hwy. 49, take a left onto Pass Rd. Traveling east, take the first left just past Oberlies Furniture. We are located at 2507 21st Ave.
