While in this school I went through my brother dying of natural causes and the counselors and teachers were very very helpful and understanding with letting me make up my work and leaving the classroom to visit the counselor whenever I needed to. The dress code was semi-strict but not over board, only the average took in your shirt/ wear your I.D.

There are a lot of different sports to choose from and a lot of team spirit. Most of the sports equipment is very good and the tryouts are open to all. I can not speak for how the team coaches are or how the are at team spirit at games because I was never on a team or gone to a game because I was a nerd.

We are thinking serious of putting our home up for sale and moving to get away from Moss Bluff Middle School district. It is a Political Community. It isn't how good your child is.... It is who you know and whos pockets you can line. I thought it was about Education. It isn't!!!
