Hello, I am Semaj McMillion a senior at Moss Point High School. I Attended this school for all four years and the best thing about it is how everyone including the staff are willing to go out of their way to help you achieve something. The worst thing about this school is that sometimes the rules they have contradict what they say and it would leave you confused.

My overall experience attending Moss Point High School over the course of four years have been great and I wouldn’t trade it for anything less. The staff make sure you succeed while motivating and supporting you. All the administrative staff have an open door policy and go beyond the call of duty for the students. Not only do we learn new and exciting things but we have fun doing so. Our school slogan is “Reach one, teach one! Can’t stop, won’t stop”! I can honestly say that slogan has made a tremendous difference and has impacted our lives. It’s overwhelming and heart warming knowing you have a people in your community whom can come together and help one another.

I went to Moss Point High School all four years. To be honest my first two years were very rocky and I hated it so much. By junior and senior year things were starting to look up. My teachers were hard working, fun, understanding, and always pushed me to be my best self! Sadly, a lot of the teachers and staff that was there when I graduated have left (class of 2021), so I don’t know how helpful this review will be. All I can say is make the most of it, ever education experience comes with challenges. It is in your control to make the most of it or sit and let it take over you! Good luck!
