Noxubee County teacher wins WCBI Back to School Essay Contest

NOXUBEE COUNTY, Miss. (WCBI) – Three teachers received an A plus for our essay contest and today they received their prize.

A 500 dollar check to decorate their classroom.

We paid a visit to Delois Mickens, a teacher at Noxubee County High school.

Mickens appreciated the voters who supported her and talked about what she plans to do with the money.

“I’m going to spend the money on resources for my students. Materials that I need. Videos that I need so I can upload on a computer because you know technology is the way to go today. Then I might just surprise my students with something,” said Mickens.

Our other two winners were Julie Heintz from MSMS and Sheila Kirkman from East Webster Elementary.
