GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The best part of Bay Springs High School are the relationships you can find and build with staff. Sports is also something that is valued and enjoyable. However, parent involvement and math and science classes could be valued more, while the other courses are taken seriously those two subjects seem to be places where academics falls short.

Bay Springs High School is a very average school with average academics, very few clubs, but good sporting opportunities. I do like the dual credit courses where you can begin college before graduation to help get junior college out of the way. Despite that, I do want to see the health and safety of the students to be taken more seriously.

I like the fact that Bay Springs High tries to get you prepared for college or a trade. Our staff focuses on reading and the ACT so much. Yet, I do not like the shortage of electives offered. Many other schools offer classes that we do not. Also, we had a break once, but it was taken away. Also, I would love to have an earlier release for seniors. The earliest a senior can get out of school is 1:23 p.m..
