Alonzo and Tracy Mourning Sr. High Biscayne Bay Campus is a secondary school in North Miami, Florida, United States which opened August 2009, located two blocks north of Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Campus. It is part of the Miami-Dade County Public Schools system. It was built to relieve overcrowding at nearby Dr. Michael M Krop and North Miami Beach high schools. The school is named after Alonzo Mourning, former player for the Miami Heat basketball team, and his wife Tracy.

The school serves all or portions of the cities of North Miami, North Miami Beach, Sunny Isles Beach, and Golden Beach.

In 2009 the MDCPS school board voted for the name of this school, considering the Mournings and former Attorney General of the United States Janet Reno. The school was named after the Mournings due to their assistance to the area schools; some members of the Cuban community in Miami disliked Reno as they disagreed with her handling of the Elian Gonzalez case.

When the school opened, it relieved Krop High School, North Miami High School, and North Miami Beach High School. Its first graduation ceremony was held June 2012.
