tenacious and self-motivated leader, Mr. Arthur Harris. Mr. Harris has 
shown what can be done through hard work, dedication, and a desire to 
achieve.

for Vicksburg High in the early 1980s and went on to play football at 
Southern Miss.
  Harris, the Gators' quarterback his senior year, played in the 1982 
Mississippi All-Star Game and was an all-state selection at three 
different positions. He was also selected as the student-athlete of the 
year in Mississippi.
  Harris was inducted into the 2022 Vicksburg Warren School District 
Athletic Hall of Fame.

Harris for his passion and dedication to the Vicksburg Warren School 
District.
