Meet Your Principal

Greetings Gators! 

My name is Beth Pelham, and I have the sincere pleasure of serving as principal at Gilbert Elementary School!  As a University of Georgia alumni, I have been an educator for nineteen years. During this time, I have served in many different capacities, which include teaching multiple elementary grade levels, district academic coach, and administration. I reside in Walker County with my husband, who is also a Walker County educator, and my two daughters. I truly believe that I am blessed with the best job in the world.  Being a teacher has always been my dream.  I am passionate about providing our students with meaningful learning experiences, creating lifelong memories with them, and most importantly, showing them consistent love and care.  I am grateful to have the opportunity to serve our students and families alongside the most kind hearted,  dedicated, and ambitious team of educators I know.

Thank you for choosing Gilbert Elementary School and for sharing your precious children with us!
