Summary:

Zip code 39507 in Gulfport, Mississippi is home to 6 schools serving 4,103 students across elementary, middle, high, and alternative education levels. These schools span two districts: the Gulfport School District (ranked 37th in Mississippi, 4 stars) and the Harrison County School District (ranked 15th, 4 stars). The zip code includes three elementary schools — Bayou View Elementary, Anniston Elementary, and Pass Road Elementary — plus Bayou View Middle, Gulfport High School, and Harrison County Child Development Center. Gulfport High School is the largest with 1,702 students, while the Child Development Center is the smallest at 77 students.

The standout is Bayou View Elementary, ranked #1 out of 377 Mississippi elementary schools with a 5-star rating and 100th percentile statewide — all while serving a population where 100% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. Its scores dwarf district and state averages: 90.3% of 3rd graders hit proficiency in ELA versus 55.5% district and 48.5% state. Bayou View Middle also excels, ranking 30th of 260 middle schools (4 stars) and beating district and state averages in every subject and grade level. Gulfport High School ranks 46th of 224 high schools (79th percentile, 4 stars) with an 89.2% graduation rate and 85.5% Algebra I proficiency.

Notably, all three elementary schools serve similarly high-poverty populations yet produce very different results. While Bayou View Elementary is #1 in the state, Pass Road Elementary ranks 147th and Anniston Elementary ranks 157th (both 3 stars). In 3rd grade ELA, Bayou View's 90.3% proficiency towers over Pass Road's 52.3% and Anniston's 49.3% — a roughly 40-point gap between schools minutes apart. Chronic absenteeism also varies: Bayou View Elementary (7.2%) and the Harrison County Child Development Center (7.1%) are low, while Gulfport High School (25.4%) exceeds district (21.5%) and state (23.9%) averages. The Child Development Center's exceptionally low 5.1 student-teacher ratio reflects its specialized, individualized alternative education mission within the Harrison County School District.
