My daughter attend Vincent. This school has some of the most unconcerned teachers I have ever seen. They call for the slightest behavior but never call to address a child's grades or a subject the child is having problems with. The principal evev ststed that long as a students behavior is affecting only them the teachers really don't play it to much attention. But is it not part of their job tb be concerned about each and every student and the learning process

Vincent high school is only good in a few ways. We have not that many good teachers. We have maybe two or three great teachers up there like ms. Ginger hidges, ms. Jane bynum, ms. Debbie barnes, and mr.Mckissick, and mr.Mehaffey thats it.

Best school in the state, I promise that. It is small but it tries to compete and it does well.

Good honors program, small class sizes. Fun sports and good school spirit. You definitely can get a good education here, maybe not ivy league but strong for its size.
