Ocean Springs School District

OSSD Summer 18 STEM Camp visits USM

We are OS!

Welcome to the 2018-19 school year. We are OSSD and We are a learning organization deeply committed to providing exemplary academic instruction tailored to the individual needs of our students.

OSSD is a growing school district! Last year, we welcomed more than 300 new Greyhounds and this year we expect more than 5,900 students in our 7 schools. We continue to focus on building strong relationships with students and families, building rigor through instruction, and providing relevance in the activities selected for our students as we prepare them to be college and career ready.

We heard our school community in last year’s Comprehensive Needs Assessment and this year our goal is to actively increase school to home communications by more actively using teacher websites and keeping PowerSchool updated. In addition, we have worked this summer to develop security enhancements at each school. Our OSSD Police Department has officers now in each school. The safety of our students and staff is our most important goal and you can expect to hear more from us throughout the year as we continue to strengthen our school security measures.

We are incredibly proud of the accomplishments our students and staff. It takes all of us to continue our journey towards excellence. We are so excited to welcome our Greyhounds back and our administrators, teachers and support staff share this enthusiasm.
