Kristy Archibald
Being a military child, I felt very at home when I started
teaching at Lackland in 1995 after graduating from the
University of Texas at San Antonio. I taught second grade
for eight years, and my love of teaching little ones to
read led me to volunteer to teach first grade reading
once the school implemented the Success for All
program.
I left Lackland in 2003 when I married my husband who
was in the Air Force. I moved to Florida (where my son
was born), Hawaii (where my daughter was born),
Mississippi, Idaho, and South Carolina (where I subbed
and taught preschool reading) with countless TDYs and
deployments along the way. I came back to San Antonio
in 2015.
In 2016, I returned to Lackland Elementary to teach
Kindergarten. Lackland is not only a great place to work,
but the school I chose (after touring NUMEROUS others)
for my own children when they were little. The safe
environment, top-notch academics, and the amazing
research-based SFA program make it a school like no other.
