Moving to Mississippi
stehlijudy May 22, 2012
We are moving from northern Wisconsin to the N/ E corner of Mississippi. Maybe as far south as Amory area. I have looked at many schools in those areas. But would love some feedback on certain areas..like..dresscode. They seem verystrict. And how are the kids with new kids..my daughter was bullied at school here..and shes no wallflower..very into sports..art..out going and friendly. So any info you could give..would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi stehilljudy,
Here's a great place to start: http://www.greatschools.org/find-schools/
You can type in the zip code (or city), compare the ratings and read the parent reviews. Topics like bullying and arts programs come up frequently.
Also, to help make your choice simpler, take time to read this article: http://www.greatschools.org/find-a-school/moving/3986-choosing-a-school-from-a-distance.gs78568
