This school does have a wonderful staff but the review about Dr. Vincent caring about the kids is way off. My children have been to Pascagoula schools and Trent Lott for several years and they have had a large turnover in leadership with Dr. Vincent being the latest and worst. From what I hear from my children most of the teachers are unhappy and are not coming back next year. This is awful news for us parents as Trent Lott has always had the best teachers, staff, and test scores of all the middle schools in the area.

This school has a wonderful staff. Dr. Sharon Vincent is the principal, she is awesome with the kids. The teacher's are great with them. They all treat them as if they are family.
