The DeSoto Schools family is saddened by the loss of one of our own. Mrs. Christolyn Moses Sims was loved by all who knew her. Her bright smile brought joy to any room, but her wit and wisdom made her unforgettable.
Christolyn served in several capacities in DeSoto. She began as a teacher at North DeSoto Middle School where she also poured into students as a coach. Because of her leadership capacity and her desire to increase her impact on DeSoto students, Christolyn later served as Assistant Principal at North DeSoto Middle. Christolyn's final position with DeSoto Schools allowed her to combine her leadership abilities as well as her love for content as Coordinator of Student Learning for Science and Social Studies.
We will miss her joy and passion for her work and pledge to honor her by continuing her mission to serve others. Our thoughts and prayers are with Christolyn's family and all those who knew her.
