Biloxi Public School District Reviews
Rating 4.17 out of 5 29 reviews
Rating 3 out of 5
There has been many good experiences at my time in the school district. Many teachers have inspired me to be who I am and what I can accomplish. This isn't the same with the administrators, I have felt like in serious situations, they don't know exactly what they are doing. I've felt unsafe multiple times, and the school has not done what is best for the students. It feels like the schools feel more about test scores than the safety of their students.

My experience with Biloxi Public School District has been amazing. These past 4 years of my high school experience have been unforgettable. Along with these four years, I attended middle school and elementary school in Biloxi, having attended a total of 9 years in the school district. I have made so many grand memories and met some of the most relevant people of my life during this time period. I have met so many inspiring, compassionate, passionate, and lovable teachers possible. Most of my teachers were the base foundation to my amazing years in Biloxi. I have learned so much from most of the people I have met, from the janitors to the principal. I love the caring and diverse environment.

My favorite part about Biloxi School District was the way they made us feel at home instead of at school. They've always done their best to do everything they can for their students whether its helping with grades, helping with mental health, helping with attaining food, or simply helping brighten your day. There is always bound to be a student or a teacher in Biloxi Public Schools that is willing to help you make it through that day, that week, and the school year. They care about their students more than anything because they know the students are what makes it a school.
