Mrs. Cassie Lackey, MLS

I am so excited to be your child's school librarian! I love working with children and hope to inspire in them a lifelong love of reading. This is my 24th year in education and my 9th year as a librarian.

I earned a bachelor's degree in Marketing and Management from the University of Colorado and a master's degree in Library Science from Sam Houston State University. As the school librarian, my goal is to connect students with books and information that inspire curiosity and encourage lifelong learning. During library time, students build information literacy skills, practice digital citizenship, and engage in hands-on STEM activities that foster creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving.

My hope is that every child at Alkek discovers a love for the library and all it has to offer. Whether they are searching for their next favorite book, exploring new ideas, or creating something through STEM, I want the library to be a place where every student feels welcome and excited to learn.

My husband and I have been married for 30 years. We actually met in first grade in Boerne! Although we both grew up there, my family later moved to Colorado, where I graduated from high school and college. We have two wonderful children, both proud graduates of Texas A&M University. They are now married and live in the Bulverde area.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, walking, and spending time with my family.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to partnering with you and your child as we encourage a lifelong love of reading, learning, and discovery.
