WELCOME TO OUR CLASS!!

I will be your Language Arts teacher this year and I am very excited for the opportunity to get to know you all. I am also a soccer coach here at DCMS (7th/8th grade). Soccer has always been a huge part of my life and I am looking forward to an awesome season. If you have any questions at all, please contact me through my web page contact form! 

LET'S HAVE A GREAT YEAR!!

 

Meet Ms. Mitchell

Education


I graduated from the University of Memphis in December 2017 where I received my Bachelor's Degree in English.

Bio


I am originally from Clarksdale, but I have lived in the Memphis area for the majority of my life. I come from a HUGE family and they are all an integral part of my life. I have a beautiful Pit Bull and I'm quite obsessed with her. Dogs make life so much more fun! I love music and sports. My favorite food definitely would have to be pasta or some sort of ramen. You'll never find me without a Coca-Cola, Red Bull, or Milo's Sweet Tea in hand. Desoto Central is the perfect place for me to teach because my favorite color is purple. I think that just might be fate, right? I love to read, run, and just hangout with my family and friends. If I'm not cooking a huge meal at my house, I'm 100% in line at Chick-Fil-A or Fazoli's. I collect both Peter's and McCarty's pottery. I mean, how could I not, being from the Delta and all! I hope you enjoyed getting to know a little about me and I can't wait to get to know you! I'm sure we're going to have a blast together this year.
