Welcome to my classroom website! My name is Deidra Lambert, and I am a special education teacher here at Garden Lakes.  I graduated from Armuchee High School in 1988 and have been with Floyd County Schools for twenty-three years.  For twelve of those years, I was a paraprofessional in kindergarten. I received my Bachelor's of Science in Early Childhood Education from Shorter University.  Then, I went on to receive my certification in Special Education General Curriculum, and my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education with an endorsement in Reading.  I have been trained in Orten Gillingham reading strategies, and I am currently in LETRS training. This is my eleventh year in special education, and my twenty-second year here at Garden Lakes.   I look forward to working with your child this year, and I can't wait to watch them learn and grow!
