Administrative Team

Mrs. Yolanda Davis- Principal

I am a native of Brooksville, MS. I earned my bachelor’s degree in technology education from the University of West Alabama and earned my Master’s of Arts Teaching Middle Level Education and Educational Specialist degree from Mississippi State University. 

My educational philosophy is that education is a necessity that should be afforded to all individuals despite their religion, socio-economic background, race, or community. As stated by Nelson Mandela, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” This is one of my favorite quotes because without an education one is unable to reach their full potential as an individual and “Be the "positive" change you want to see in the world.” - Mahatma Gandhi.

Ms. Corey Boykin- Assistant Principal

My name is Corey Boykin and I am the assistant principal at Poplar Springs Elementary.  I am starting my fourth year here and looking forward to a new school year.  I have been in education for 18 years and have previously taught multiple grades at the elementary level.

I am a native of Newton County, Mississippi.  I attended East Central Community College and Mississippi State University - Meridian Campus,  where I received my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and my masters' degree in Education Leadership.  In my free time I enjoy spending time with my twin boys, traveling, baking, and decorating.

My twin boys, Aiden and Avery, are thirteen and they keep me busy with sports and activities.
