Welcome to 2nd GRADE
Hello! My name is Leah Mayben. I am so excited to begin my 24th year of teaching and my very first year with Lampasas ISD. Over the years, I have had the joy of teaching first and second grades, and I can honestly say that there is nothing quite like watching a child learn and grow in their early years of education.
One of my greatest passions is teaching children to read. I love seeing the moment when a child begins to put the pieces together. The excitement in their eyes, the pride in their smile, and the realization that they can do something they once thought was difficult are priceless moments. Those are the moments that make teaching so special to me.
I hold master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction and am certified in Dyslexia Therapy. I believe every child can learn, and I love finding ways that help each individual student feel successful, confident, and excited about learning.
When I’m not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family. My husband and I have been married for 31 years, and we have two children. We are thrilled to be living closer to family and beginning a new adventure as we move to our ranch near Lometa.
I feel incredibly blessed to be working at Hanna Springs Elementary where I can spend my days helping children learn to believe in themselves. I am looking forward to getting to know my students and families and making this a wonderful year filled with lots of happy memories!
