Meet Mrs. Shively

Welcome to our classroom! This is my 14th year teaching (my 12th year at MES, I also taught for two years at Nashville Elementary in Brown County). I have taught sixth, fourth, first, and second grades. I am excited to learn new things as I return to 4th grade this year! I graduated from Southwestern High School in 2000, and then I earned a bachelor's degree from Butler University (GO DAWGS!) and a master's degree in Elementary Education from Ball State University.

I live in Shelbyville with my family where my husband, Jacob, is a Spanish teacher and on the baseball coaching staff at Shelbyville High School. We stay busy with our two sons. They are both very excited to be attending MES this year! Owen is 7 years old and is in 1st grade. He loves reading, drawing, and watching movies. Will is 4 years old, and he is in the peer-model preschool class. He loves playing with his big brother, trucks and tractors, and baseball. We all love being outdoors, playing in and attending sporting events, and spending time with family.

I am looking forward to a wonderful year in fourth grade!
