My name is Elise Skellie and I am excited about this upcoming year at TMS. For the past 18 years, I have been dedicated to teaching 6th graders and love it! I look forward to designing creative lessons for my students. My favorite part about being a teacher is getting to truly know my students, having fun and encouraging my students to accomplish their goals! I have taught sixth grade in Alabaster since 2000 and look forward to many more years to come.

         My home is located in Hoover, but I adore the Alabaster community. On the weekends, I love to spend time with my family. My husband and two daughters, Sophia (13) and Sarah Kate (9), keep me very busy.  We like to swim, hang out at the lake, travel, cook yummy recipes and get together with friends. We are also active members of our church, Prince of Peace! I grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana and moved here after I attended college at the University of Alabama. Roll Tide!
