Hello! My name is Justin Gough and I teach College and Career Readiness and Broadcast at Pearl High School. This will be my 8th year teaching and my first year at Pearl High School. I spent the last three years at Pearl Junior High School teaching ICT II, STEM, U.S. History and World History. Prior to that, I taught at Pelahatchie High school teaching Advanced Placement World History, World History, Geography, Mississippi Studies, Psychology, Sociology, and STEM. I serve as the Pearl High School Head Esports coach and Assistant tennis coach. This past school year, our Esports program beat Ocean Springs in the State Championship for Rocket League and captured the first ever Esports State Championship for our school. At Pelahatchie, I coached track, tennis, and cross country and was the sponsor of the academic team. My wife, Ashley Gough, also teaches here at Pearl High School. We were blessed in the May 2017 with our daughter Emory. If you ever have any questions about anything, please feel free to reach out and email me. I know this year will be a different type of year, but all we can do is be positive and go with it. I encourage you to speak with your children daily about the importance of their education. Once again, welcome to the 2020-2021 school year! #AnchorDown
