Beneath USM: The steam tunnels and workers who kept campus warm

It was winter in Hattiesburg, sometime in the 1980s. This particular day was especially cold. The temperature was low enough to have icicles hanging from the buildings and trees. Most of the people on campus were inside, as expected for a day that cold. A group of men drive to the administration building in their truck. The road next to it was caved in, and below was the steam tunnel that kept the buildings warm, which was damaged by the fall.

How much does the best private school in, near, Hattiesburg cost?

Every year, families in the Hattiesburg area are faced with the same question: Where should the children go to school? Parents want the best for their children. Public schools are often the natural choice, because they are tuition-free and close to home. Others, however, look beyond district lines in search of alternatives they believe better fit their children's needs. Private schools offer that option, though it comes at a cost. Annual tuition in the Hattiesburg area ranges from about $4,600 to nearly $13,000, depending on the school. For many families, the expense is outweighed by benefits such as smaller class sizes, individualized attention and educational opportunities they believe will help their children succeed. Sacred Heart Catholic School's tuition sits in the middle of that range. A year of high school schooling costs $7,950 for a Catholic student and $8,950 for non-Catholic students. It's a pretty penny, sure, but Sacred Heart Catholic School is ranked the best in the area and the second best in the entire state. According to Niche, a website that evaluates private schools throughout the nation, Hattiesburg's Sacred Heart is the No. 2 private school in Mississippi, trailing only St. Andrew's Episcopal School in Jackson.
