My name is Ashlee James and I received my bachelor’s degree from The University of Alabama and my master’s from The University of Alabama at Birmingham. I teach 5^th grade Math and Science. Math is my favorite subject to teach. However, when I was in 5^th grade, math was not my favorite subject. Reading was! My husband Mr. James and I are expecting a daughter in 2024 and are so excited! We also have a dog, Snoop, our FURst child. Outside of elementary education, you will find me cheering on the Crimson Tide, continuing to learn the Spanish language, and planning events for family and friends. I am very excited about the 2023 – 2024 school year and cannot wait to grow with the Tarrant Intermediate Staff and Students.
