Greetings! Welcome to my website. My name is Gary Dean Sims and I am proud
to be part of the South Panola School System! I moved back here after 13
years on the Gulf Coast. I taught World History and coached football at
Hancock County HS until Hurricane Katrina re-arrainged my furniture as well
as my neighborhood. I decided to come back home to North Mississippi to
start over. I am a graduate of the University of Mississippi with a BPA and
I messed around and got enough hours to get another degree in Sociology. I
am also a veteran. My tour of duty allowed me to travel the world, some
great places, some not so great. I have been to Central America, Korea,
Thailand, Okinawa, Australia, Africa, The Middle East, and Western Asia.
I enjoy living here in Panola County and look forward to
teaching and coaching for many years to come. I am currently teaching 7th
Social Studies, I coach the defense for the 7th and 8th grade football teams
and I am also on the varsity staff. If you ever need me? feel free to call
the school, or
have your child request my home phone. I am NOT putting it here on the
website!! Thank you for allowing me to educate your child. I am most
humbled and honered. I am blessed to be here!
I am a avid reader. I am also a Southern male, Therefore I fish. (Feel free
to invite me to fish your lakes and ponds) I live in
Batesville. I am a Christian and I am the sponser of the local Fellowship
of Christian Athletes Chapter. I am also "happily" single. I enjoy meeting
folks, so if
you see me out and
about? Dont be a stranger!
My mission is simple,.... to teach each and every child to the best of my
ability, and hopefully between my classtime and your efforts we can help
mold a solid citizen, and a young person that will be prepared to take
their role in our ever changing world. Life is hard enough. Lets make sure
they are prepared with a good education, and solid values. I will always
appreciate and encourage your input and
advice on how we can both help each other to achieve this.
