Elvis Presley's favorite teacher was Mrs. Oleta Grimes. At first he was hoping he would not get her because she had a reputation for being harsh. However after she heard him sing a song, she took him to Mr. Cole the principles office to let him sing to him. Both were highly impressed and this encounter led Elvis to enter and win a prize in the Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show.

His elementary school teacher recalled him as being withdrawn yet bright.

His High School Music Teacher said his musical talents were "average" but promising.

His High School ROTC Teacher said he was a wonderful student.

His High School Librarian said that he read as many books as he could during the school year but never checked that many out (i.e. took home with him).

All of Elvis' teachers confirm he was always respectful, on time, and was increasingly attractive with a style of his own.

Elvis was a natural singer, with many early influences, primarily Gospel Music, which remained his personal favorite music to the end of his life.
