Ms. Shamada Ridgel
Hello! I’m a Special Education teacher at Mason School of Academic and Cultural Literacy, working with 4th-6th grade students. I’ve been at Mason for 5 years.
A bit about me: I spent 11 years as a paraprofessional in special education with Saint Louis Public Schools before stepping into my current role as a Special Education teacher. My mission is to support all students according to their individual needs and guide them to become life-long learners in the classroom and in their communities. A safe, positive, and consistent atmosphere is essential for successful learning. I integrate social behavior skills into my curriculum, helping students develop positive communication methods with peers and staff.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me via email. I plan to check and respond to emails from 10:05-11:10 AM or immediately after school.
