About Us...
Mrs. Lyons~
My name is Andrea Y. Lyons and I grew up in New Bern, North Carolina-the home of the New Bern Bears and Tryon Palace. I attended East Carolina University and received a BS Degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in English. In 2001, I moved to Raleigh to begin my career in education. I began teaching second grade at Hunter Gifted and Talented Magnet School and later transferred to Hilburn Drive Elementary. In 2004, my love for all types of literature persuaded me to reenter East Carolina University to obtain a Masters in Library Science and Technology. Upon completion of the program in 2006, I began seeking and completed my National Board Certification in Early Childhood. With seven years of previous experience in the classroom, I am ecstatic to begin my 13th year as the CROCS' Media Specialist. Happy 13th Birthday Sycamore Creek Elementary School!
One of my favorite children's book is Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. This classic is so much more than a children's book! Take a peek and revisit your childhood through Max's eyes. In honor of this book, take a peek at my own "wild thing" Max, dressed as Sendak's character for Halloween in 2011. Contact and Follow Me Email: [email protected] Twitter: Mrs.Lyons@crocsandnoble |
