SUMRALL High School is a very small-town based school and community. We have excelled in sports and arts although our performing arts facilities need an upgrade.

Sumrall has a diverse curriculum with math, science, and technical classes. We also have a fantastic drama club, an excellent marching/concert band, a nationally known choir, and a capella group. We are highly ranked in sports. With a very involved PTA and wonderful school board officials, I would completely recommend Sumrall High School.
