D'Iberville Students Moving to New Digs

When South Mississippi schools reopen Wednesday after the Mardi Gras holiday, students at D'Iberville High will finally move into their new digs.

Students spent most of last week helping to move furniture and academic supplies into their new location. The building cost about $41 million and will hold 1,662 students, according to www.sunherald.com

School officials said rain and construction delays moved the original opening from the 2008 Christmas holidays to Feb. 25.

Principal Elmer Mullins said most of the students and staff are ready for the move. Some seniors said they would rather have completed their final year at one location, but they like the idea of a new school

The district built a new high school after Hurricane Katrina destroyed D'Iberville Middle School. Students from that school will move into the present high school.

Both buildings are located on Lamey Bridge Road, about seven miles apart. The new school will be used as a shelter during hurricanes.

Biloxi Students Moving Around in the District

Biloxi School District officials are implementing a restructuring plan that will mean new locations for hundreds of students across the district.

According to www.wlox.com, the changes will mean all sixth- graders will move to what is now Michel Seventh Grade School.

Seventh-graders at Michel will relocate to the present Biloxi Junior High, which will become a school for seventh- and eighth-graders.

Biloxi High School now located north of Biloxi Bay will get another wing for ninth-graders. The wing will include 38 classrooms, offices and a cyber cafe.
