Central Elementary School

This school is amazing! The special education department has done wonderful things with my son. He has progressed so much since he has been here. My daughter's behavior has been great with all her peers and teachers. This school has made me a proud mama!

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.

Unbelievable school!! My daughter attended 4th-6th grade and she couldn't have been happier!! My 2 yr old will definitely attend Westminster without a doubt!

Always heard great things about St James School, until I put my son in the PreK 2 program (21-22 school year). He turned 2 in July and started in August, so he was a very new 2 and he had a delay using his words. His teacher NEVER had 1 positive thing to say about my son and I was told by his teacher and the principal that because of his delay in speech that he was showing signs of autism (which I had him checked multiple times and he passed with no issues) and wasn’t a good fit for St James because of this which is very discriminatory and his teacher “just doesn’t have time” because this coming up year (22-23) they will have 20 2 yr olds in 1 class with 2 teachers. The main reason I paid 6k for my son to attend this school was what I thought smaller classes so the teachers would be able to have more one on one time. However, that wasn’t the case. If you’re on the waiting list or thinking about enrolling your child in the Pre K 2 program here. I highly recommend you not wasting your money on this one please find another program because this one just isn’t a good one.
