Summary

Diberville Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 4-8 in the Harrison County School District, with 526 students. This sizable middle school has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Mississippi middle schools for the past several years, earning 4 or 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

Diberville Middle School stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state and district averages on the MAAP (Mississippi Academic Assessment Program) tests in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 66.7% of 4th graders at Diberville were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 64.7% for the district and 52.1% for the state. The school's high-performing status is further evidenced by its ability to outperform nearby schools like Gulfport Central Middle School and Bayou View Middle School on test scores across grade levels and subject areas.

However, Diberville Middle School faces some challenges, including a rising rate of chronic absenteeism, which increased from 14.4% in 2020-2021 to 23.9% in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.63% to 99.67% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school may need to focus on addressing attendance issues and providing additional support and resources for students from low-income backgrounds to ensure continued academic success.
