Its "customers" are geographically-bound resident students and families receiving free public education. The district maintains strategic partnerships with the Delta Health Alliance (for health, literacy, and teacher development programs) and the Mississippi Early Learning Collaboratives, and is overseen by a Board of Trustees led by Superintendent Dr. Kenneth Pulley. The organization employs approximately 1,000 staff across its 16 sites.
