McComb High School is a public school in McComb, Mississippi, United States, serving 740 students in grades 9–12, as of 2017. Most of its students are African American. During segregation, black students attended Burlund High School, now Higgins Middle School. Students who were arrested at protests for civil rights were expelled by then principal Higgins. Brenda Travis returned to her former school in 2006 to thank her supporters and encourage a continued action for civil rights.
Its boundary includes almost all of McComb and almost all of Summit.
