My name is Natalie Lyle. I am originally from Southern California but raised a Texas girl.  I graduated from Texas State University with a Bachelors in Interdisciplinary Studies with a specialization in Early Childhood and a Masters in Education Administration from Lamar University. I have been in education for 16 years. I have taught Pre-K, Kindergarten, 1st grade Dual Langauge, and Second grade.  Writing is a passion of mine. I encourage all my students to illustrate and journal often to find their writing voice. 

I am happy to call Driftwood, Texas my home.  My husband Trenton and I have 3 amazing children, Gabriel, Connor and Ava Mary.  Our baby girl Ava Mary will be a 4th grade student at Sycamore this year. 

Interests and Hobbies: Camping, reading, watching our children compete in sports and listening to all kinds of music.
