Hello! My name is Alisha Shell. I graduated from the University of Alabama at Birmingham in May of 2021 with a Bachelors in Elementary Education and a Graduate Certificate in teaching Multilingual Learners. This is my first year at the Ridge, but my second year teaching fifth grade! I am so excited to join the Pelham Ridge family and become a part of this incredible community. My number one goal is to build lasting relationships with my students. I believe that relationships are foundational and must be established before students can thrive academically. I will always aim to provide a safe environment that encourages my students to be themselves but also challenges them in ways that help them grow so that they gain the tools they need to go out and change the world! 


I am married to my husband, Jarrod. We just recently had a daughter named Eloise! She is almost three months old. We also have 3 golden retrievers. Their names are Oliver, Lucy, and Milo! When I’m not teaching, I love spending time outdoors at the lake and beach with my family, friends, and dogs. I am looking forward to having a great school year!
