OCEAN SPRINGS, Miss (OSSD) -- The Ocean Springs School District Board of Trustees voted on Tuesday night to approve the recommendation of Melissa Wojcik Arnold as the next Assistant Superintendent of OSSD on July 1.
Wojcik will take her new role in OSSD after serving as Principal of Ocean Springs Middle School for four years. Prior to leading OSMS, she held several roles in her nine years of service to Ocean Springs High School, including Testing/MTSS Coordinator and Assistant Principal. Before joining OSSD in 2014, Wojcik worked for George County School District for five years as a Special Education Teacher and Positive Behavior Specialist.

In her new role, Wojcik will oversee OSSD’s curriculum and instruction initiatives, as well as the overall academic performance of the district. She replaces Justin Sutton, who was named OSSD’s next Superintendent of Schools last month.
