This is so stupid. This school is literally so bad because it just so strict, all staff needs retraining. The gymnasium teachers are so mean. They bully, threaten kids. They called a fat kid big boy and that isn’t nice. Gulfport Central Middle School is one of the worst schools on the Gulfport School District. I believe that Bayou View is way better than GCMS. GCMS doesn’t have a good emotional hotline to talk about anything. Ms. Thompson is the secondary principal and she just cuts off kids and don’t let them say anything. She doesn’t believe anything that kids says. She only believe the trouble makers and the kids that bully other students about race, facial looks, and what they have and don’t have. This school provides nothing at all and this is not right. GCMS is bad and I want to show it to others. The band directors are really rude, the art teacher lowers your grades if she doesn’t like you, they have real harsh punishments and teachers or admins don’t do anything if a kid gets bullied. This shows how GCMS is one of the schools that I don’t recommend attending for your child. Surly this provides great education for students but the administrations and teachers are really strict. They don’t care if one is getting bullied or something. They wouldn’t care if students skip electives and they don’t do Jack. This is sure a rule, strict, non caring, and a bullying school. If you attend GCMS you may know the bullying and fights that happen very often. The slap boxing and the name calling isn’t it. We need this school to have some great authority and report right away if someone is getting their feelings hurt. This school really needs some retraining. I’m sorry to say this but the administration and the teachers at Gulfport Central Middle School needs to learn a thing or two about handling a bully or fight situation.

I have been extremely satisfied with the rigorous curriculum and the additional opportunities offered to all students through the arts, athletics and academic programs. GHS can provide for every need.

Do not be fool by the previous ratings and comments. Most of the previous posting are from faculty and the principle. The school is awful. If you care about your children education avoid this school. If possible avoid the Gulfport (there are only two good schools in the district, which are Anniston and Bayou Elementary) and Harrison county. One good thing about West is that there are a couple teachers that are good, the ones that were kept from the previous administration. West, care more about behavior and academics, which I believe that both are as important. The worst part of the school is the principal. Overall, do not send your kid. For parents that have children there report the administration bad behavior. Don't just go to the superintendent (because he doesn't do NOTHING) Go tot the school boardIf you don't get help there go to the Mississippi department of education.and if you get no help there go to the Federal Department of Justice.
