School Overview

The Moss Point Alternative School, located at 3524 Prentiss Ave. in Moss Point, Mississippi, serves as a specialized educational environment within the Moss Point School District. Designed to support students who may benefit from a setting outside of the traditional classroom, the school focuses on providing structured academic instruction and behavioral intervention. Its primary objective is to help students overcome challenges, improve their academic standing, and develop the necessary skills to successfully transition back into the mainstream school environment.
