With a focus on high standards, Bay Waveland Middle School has reached increasingly higher goals with each passing year. Raising the bar on academics, Bay Middle achieved a rank of High Performing School in 2010 by the MS Department of Education. An emphasis on the arts allows all students to grow through music, dance and art. Enrichment continues after school with federally funded programs to engage students in more learning opportunities, cleverly disguised as fun, offered by both teachers and qualified professionals.
