MCTS History

The history of Mobile County Training School began as far back as 1880. It was the oldest county training school in Alabama. For many years it was a high school composed of grades 7-12. Renovations and additions were made in 1967 and the 6th grade was accommodated.

The 1970-71 school term resulted in a change in the grade structure of the school. This reorganization transformed the school from a high school to a middle school.

During the 2004-05 school year, MCTS became one of three middle schools in Mobile County to be chosen for the school Transformation initiative to improve student achievement.
