The MIMS Institute LLC is a community-based resource that promotes academic excellence in key urban zip codes.
Families can access Individual Family Support through the Administrative Support Organization (ASO) and participating Children's Board of Hillsborough County service providers.
We ask students “The Phillip Jackson Questions” and the “Read Good Books Questions”
• How are you doing in school?
• Where do you intend to apply for college?
• What career do you want to pursue?
• What was the last good book that you read and what good book are you reading now?
Students and parents sometimes give us permission to review these key education records:
• Edline.net class progress reports
• Facts.org electronic Pupil Education Planner (ePEP) and evaluations
• PSAT Score Report
• Student Permanent Record Summary Worksheet
We share information gained from:
• School Board meetings
• School Board Agenda Items
• Student Handbook
• High School Curriculum Guides
• School Improvement Plans
• Reports from the Florida Department of Education
• Reports from the College Board and other education organizations
• Students attending and 21st Century graduates of America’s Best Colleges
• Students currently succeeding in rigorous high school classes
• Other observers of academic opportunities available to students in public schools
The Bottom Line
The transfer of information about exceptional academic opportunities sometimes changes outcomes for students from urban zip codes and guides them toward a path to make significant contributions to the United States of America and the communities in which they live.
