Hello, my name is Michelle Mims. As a teacher in the Perry County School System, I have much joy in bringing out students’ best abilities. I chose to be a teacher because I believe in the power of education. Education is the cornerstone of our humanity. It is access to opening doors to have a better life. 

One of my favorite quotes by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr is, “Everybody Can Be Great Because Everybody Can Serve.” My experience as a teacher allows me to inspire others to dream more. I am always encouraging students to believe in themselves by letting their faith be bigger than their fears. The only way to go is forward!”
