WILLIAMS SCHOOL

WILLIAMS SCHOOL is a public high school that is part of the MDHS Division Of Youth Services school district, located in RAYMOND, MS with about 63 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 25 teachers, WILLIAMS SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 2:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The WILLIAMS SCHOOL, located at 2375 Oakley Road in Raymond, Mississippi, is a specialized educational facility operating under the jurisdiction of the Hinds County School District. Historically and functionally, the site is recognized for its role in providing alternative education and support services for students who require a structured environment outside of the traditional comprehensive high school setting. The facility is situated in a rural area of Hinds County, emphasizing a focused approach to academic recovery, behavioral support, and personalized instruction.

The school’s mission is centered on providing students with the tools necessary to improve their academic standing and develop the social-emotional skills required to transition back into their home schools or successfully graduate. By maintaining smaller class sizes and utilizing a specialized curriculum, the staff at WILLIAMS SCHOOL aims to address individual learning gaps and provide consistent guidance to students who may be at risk of academic failure. The program is designed to create a bridge between intervention and long-term student success within the broader Hinds County educational system.
