About the Teacher

Hi! 

Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year!! My name is Lila Lamb. This is my ninth year as a reading interventionist at Surprise Elementary. I am currently working with small groups of students in grades K-6 to boost reading skills. Before becoming an interventionist, I was a Kindergarten teacher in the Dysart Unified School District for 15 years.

I received both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Northern Arizona University (go Lumberjacks!!). I chose to obtain the Reading Specialist endorsement during my Master's degree coursework in order to provide an enhanced reading experience for my Kindergarten students. Now, the endorsement is benefiting my students during small-group targeted reading instruction. 

When I am not "Mrs. Lamb", I am busy at home with my husband and 14 year old son named Preston. We like to spend our time reading books, swimming, playing video games, watching movies, and spending time with the Grandmas and Grandpas up in Prescott. My personal interests include hiking, working out at the gym, trying new healthy recipes, playing Candy Crush,  and spending as much time as possible with my family and friends.

Please do not hesitate to contact me via note, phone call, or email at any time for questions or concerns you may have.
