Interview: TPSD starts new school as “A” district
SUMMARY: Last year, the Tupelo Public School District became an A-rated district for the first time, thanks to the hard work of students, teachers, and staff. Superintendent Dr. Rob Piku credits the amazing teachers and their focus on standards and best practices for the achievement. Despite the challenges of the third year post-COVID, the district is ready to continue creating joyful learning experiences and motivating children to learn. The school district is known for its caring and loving teachers, and the new cafeteria at Tupelo High School offers a variety of healthy meal options. Dr. Piku's favorite musical instrument is the harmonica, as he believes the world needs more harmonica players.
Superintendent Dr. Rob Picou with the Tupelo Public School District said it feels really good going into the new school year as an “A” district for the first time, but he said their school district is always bigger than the letter classification their given.
