Calynn Perkins

 

Welcome to Nichols Sawmill Elementary School! I’m Calynn Perkins, and I am thrilled to serve as the Principal here at NSE. I began my educational journey in 2014 as a teacher at Magnolia High School and later took on responsibilities as the 504 and testing coordinator. Over the years, I’ve been privileged to lead both district and campus professional developments, ensuring quality education for all our students. My academic background includes a bachelor’s degree in marketing and a master’s in educational administration. On a personal note, I’m a proud mother of three beautiful daughters, with two attending schools in MISD. Outside of school, you can often find me tending to my garden, soaking up the sun at the beach with my family, or engaging in community activities through my church. As we move into the 2025-2026 school year, I’m excited to connect with our students and parents. Together, we’ll ensure that NSE remains a place of #ExcellenceInMotion!

My husband and I have two wonderful sons, Matthew and Nicholas, and two amazing granddaughters, Mabry and Mila.  I have a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary and Special Education, a Master’s degree in Educational Administration and a Master’s degree in Counseling.  I have always wanted to work with children and have worked in the school setting for the last thirty-nine years.  I have taught first and fifth grade and for the last twenty-eight years I have been a school counselor.  Because my dad was in the Air Force, I have moved around quite a  bit.  In my very long lifetime, I have moved twenty-one times.  NSE is by far my favorite place to work.  We have the very best students, parents, and community.  Our students are loving and very accepting of one another.  That is due to the way they are being raised by their parents.  It is such a joy to work with them each and every day.
