About Choctaw County Schools

Description provided by the district or community — not part of the NCES dataset.

Traditionally, the family is the social institution that fosters a child's sense of community values. Most families still perform that function successfully, but changes in social structure, such as the entry of women into the workforce, the increase in divorces and single-parent households, and the dispersal of the extended family, have challenged families' abilities to provide the guidance and supervision that young people need. There is increasing evidence that students go through school without obtaining the knowledge, skills, and values that are essential to becoming responsible citizens.
