Learning came to life for West Elementary's 4th graders during their field trip to the GCRL Marine Education Center in Ocean Springs! Students explored Mississippi's coastal ecosystems through hands-on activities and interactive exhibits, gaining a deeper understanding of the marine life and habitats that make our Gulf Coast so special. It was a day full of discovery, curiosity, and unforgettable learning experiences!

Mississippi has maintained its 16th national education ranking, according to the 2026 KIDS COUNT Data Book released today, and was recognized as being one of two states to post improvements from 2019-2024 in education. Get details at bit.ly/4vFx0A0.
