Ocean Springs High School Reviews
Rating 4.14 out of 5 338 reviews
The best part of it is definitely the teachers and faculty. They're always willing to help when needed, no matter what the problem may be. The school also offers advanced classes that allow students to challenge themselves academically.
However, the "worst" part is the lack of racial diversity. The student population is mostly made up of Caucasian students, and there is a definite lack of racial diversity and extracurricular activities.
If I could see one thing change at Ocean Springs Highschool, it would be more extracurricular activities and increase racial diversity. More extracurriculars would give students the chance to explore their interests and more racial diversity would create a more welcoming environment for all students and provide them with valuable perspectives.
In conclusion, Ocean Springs Highschool is a great place to learn and grow academically. However, it could benefit from more extracurricular activities and increasing racial diversity.

My experience at Ocean Springs High School has been very positive overall. The teachers and staff are extremely supportive and genuinely care about their students, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment. The academic program provides a well-rounded education with various course offerings and opportunities to explore different interests and passions. The school community is also very involved, with a variety of clubs and activities to participate in, as well as sports teams and school-wide events. Overall, my experience has been very positive and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to attend such a wonderful school.
Ocean Springs High School is a rather wonderful school with far more learning paths than other schools in South Mississippi. It is the only public school on the Gulf Coast to offer the IB Program, a rigorous set of classes that provides a high school level education anywhere in the world. Ocean Springs High School, in my experience, caters to those who want to go above and beyond the usual expectation for High School students, and allows them to get a head start on others enrolling in college around the United States.
