From Ms. Shipley:

This is my sixth year at Brighton High School, and my eleventh year in the Tipton County School System. This is a wonderful place to teach! I attended both Rhodes College and University of Memphis. My B.S. is in French and English, and my M.S. is in general counseling.

I have lived in a number of places, including France, New York, and the Panama Canal Zone; however, I claim Memphis as home. I have two grown sons and five grandchildren.

My hobbies are reading, plays, movies, traveling, and music.
