Welcome to 1st grade! My name is Lauren Ackley, and I am so excited for my seventh year at Sem! I was born and raised in Dallas where I met my husband, Ben. We got married in 2022, and we are expecting our first baby in August! We both went to Hardin-Simmons University, where I studied Elementary Education and played volleyball. In my free time I love to read, travel, and spend time with friends and family. I can't wait to get to know your family, and I am so lucky to get to teach your sweet children this year.Â
