I attend Vigor High School. Vigor is part of Mobile County School System. Vigor prepares us for the real world as well as college. My school district provides us with electronics and different resources to insure we are receiving an education despite the pandemic. I love Mobile County. We have frequent holidays off to enjoy family and friends. We have a Mardi Gras Break, Spring break, Christmas break, and a Thanksgiving break. Our school system try their best to make sure we are safe during after school activities such as games and proms. I can't speak on other schools within my school district but Vigor High School has excellent teachers. Our teachers are concerned about our education and our well being outside of school. We have one of the best schools in Mobile County Public School System. Our administration team is excellent as well. Our Principle Mr. Cunningham is fair and he insures the teachers are teaching and that we are on the right track for graduation.
Underfunded and poorly managed. The conditions of the schools are usually terrible and the teachers are overworked. There is almost always a substitute teacher shortage and bus driver shortage (because they are paid and treated poorly) making both the students and teachers lives harder. As a whole the district does not care about the individual schools or teachers, but they do call them up to central office to give them a meaningless certificate.
Being a student of a few Mobile County Schools, I would say they have their positives and negatives. Starting with the negatives, I would say uniforms are probably the worse. Growing up all I could remember is shopping for different uniforms each year. When I went to Causey Middle School, I had to wear a different color shirt each year, 6th grade was grey, 7th grade was yellow, and 8th grade was navy. I understand that uniforms prevent bullying they say, but having different color shirts to point out the grade of the student, kinda targets that student in my opinion.
Ending with the positives, I believe the school system is a great choice. Minus the uniform ruling, Mobile County public school system offers great leadership and professionalism through their schools. Being a alumni of Baker High school, I just have all great things to say. If it wasn't for my teachers and the staff at Baker High, I would have never brought a GPA of 2.5 as a freshman to a 3.4 as Senior.
