Hancock School District

Situated at 18375 Hwy 603 in Kiln, Mississippi, the Hancock School District operates as an active, traditional public school system within the Gulfport-Biloxi metropolitan area. Defined by its rural fringe setting, the district manages seven operational schools that offer a comprehensive educational continuum spanning from pre-kindergarten through grade 13. As a non-charter public system, it serves as a central learning hub for local families, offering accessible community-based instruction supported by an administrative team reachable by phone at (228) 255-0376 or online at www.hancockschools.net.

During the 2024–2025 academic year, the Hancock School District educates a student body of 3,934 learners, comprising 2,071 male and 1,863 female students. The district's demographic makeup includes 3,243 White students, 295 Black students, 199 Hispanic students, 146 multiracial students, 24 Asian students, 18 American Indian students, and 9 Pacific Islander students. Within this reporting period's dataset, full-time equivalent (FTE) staffing figures—including classroom teachers, instructional aides, and support staff—are listed at zero FTE, reflecting missing or uncollected staffing metrics for the current reporting cycle. Despite these data gaps, Hancock School District continues to fulfill its mission of nurturing academic growth across diverse grade levels in coastal Mississippi.
