MISSISSIPPI UNIVERSITY FOR WOMEN (WCBI) – A local university is partnering with a North Mississippi school district to offer more opportunities for students’ futures.
Mississippi University for Women and DeSoto County Schools have signed a Memorandum of Understanding that will create eight career pathway programs.
The pathways include business, education, nursing, leadership, and career readiness, along with culinary arts, healthcare, and educator career tech programs.
The classes will include three courses, allowing high school students the opportunity to peek into the career of interest while meeting degree requirements.
Taking dual enrollment classes will be covered by a university scholarship; all other dual credit courses available to DCS will be charged a partner school rate.
The classes will be offered in the Spring of 2026.
