This school year, the Bay High Tigers welcomed Warren Eyster as the school’s new principal.
 
Principal Eyster isn’t originally from Hancock County, but he is no stranger to Mississippi. Originally from Hammond, Louisiana, Eyster first moved to Mississippi in 2003 to play football for Delta State University.
 

 
Most of Eyster’s family still lives in Hammond; his daughter plays softball for McNeese State University. No surprise here, but he’s also a lifelong LSU and Saints fan and really enjoys cheering for the Tigers this season.
 

 
Prior to accepting the role at Bay High, Eyster was the principal of two secondary schools near McComb. After more than 15 years in education, Eyster is hoping Bay High is his final stop. Before stepping into administration, he taught high school-level social studies and comprehensive health.
 

 
The Eyster family has long considered the Bay a favorite spot for relaxation, good music, and fun on the water. Eyster said, “I fell in love with the town and the people!”. When he saw the position at Bay High posted, he couldn’t pass it up. 
 

 
Principal Eyster is excited to join the team and looks forward to working with the outstanding teaching staff and supporting his students. He’s optimistic about Bay High’s future, hoping that the school soon ranks in the top ten high schools in the state. Said Eyster, “We are close!”
 
Hancock County welcomes you, Mr. Eyster, and hopes you continue to have a great year.
