This is a boarding school for grades 8-12. I just liked the architecture as we drove past and I am sure there must be some history to this building but I haven't been able to find that out.

I am trying to dig up some photo's of the battle ground, but there is more to do there, it just seems everyone goes for the history of the Battle of Vicksburg during the Civil War.

The town is almost lost in history. When i was there there were reinactments of various battles, so there were many people in period clothing. You have to see the battleground or else.
