Name: LaVaun Lambert

Position: Third-grade teacher, Hughson Elementary

Years in the district: 21

Favorite memories/accomplishments: One of my most favorite memories is participating in Ag Day each spring. For several years, I co-chaired Ag Day with Mrs. Carnes. It’s many students’ favorite day of the year. I love to see them enjoying themselves and learning about agriculture and the many ways it is a part of our everyday lives. I also did after school tutoring for many years, served as a new teacher induction mentor and grade level chairperson at times. I was also chairperson of the Sunshine Committee for many years and was honored to celebrate our staff, admin, birthdays, births, weddings and mourn the loss of loved ones.

What will you miss the most? I will miss the people I work with each day and those who have become dear friends. I will miss the students, too, and the things they have taught me. 

Any special retirement plans? My husband and I plan to do some traveling, enjoy time with our kids and grandkids and do some volunteering at my church.
