Summary:
The 39563 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Moss Point Separate School District. While Moss Point High School has shown relatively strong performance on state assessments, the district's middle school, Magnolia Middle School, has struggled academically with proficiency rates well below the state average. All three schools serve a high-need student population, with 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Moss Point High School has performed above the state average in several subject areas, but its statewide ranking has declined in recent years, dropping from 106th in 2021-2022 to 133rd in 2022-2023. In contrast, Magnolia Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Mississippi middle schools, with a ranking of 186th out of 264 in the most recent school year.
The high poverty levels across all three schools in the 39563 zip code, with 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggest that targeted interventions and support may be necessary to address the unique challenges faced by these institutions. While Moss Point High School has shown some academic strengths, the overall performance of schools in this area indicates a need for the Moss Point Separate School District to focus on improving educational outcomes for its students.
