About Me
About Me
Hi! I'm Alison Davis, your Lit/Comp III teacher. I'm so excited to be at Richmond Hill High School this year!
This is my 18th year in education, and my 7th year in Bryan County Schools. I enjoyed the last six years at RHMS, where I taught some truly amazing students and worked with dedicated colleagues. I hold a bachelor's degree in English Education from Tusculum University in Greenville, TN, and a master's degree in School Library Media from East Tennessee State University. Ultimately, I chose to be a teacher because, more than anything, I love the community that a classroom creates, where we can discuss complex topics that we read about together. Every year, I learn and grow as a person because of the students I teach and the experiences they share with our classroom.
I'm married with one child - you will see her around campus - and I have the best puppy dog. I enjoy reading, listening to music, gardening, and antiquing.
I'm excited to spend our inaugural year in this brand-new, beautiful building! Let's get started!
