Dear Parents/Guardians,

I wanted to start by introducing myself and welcoming you to the 2024-2025 school year.

My name is Samantha Lyles (Hamilton). I have been working for Tri-County for 10 years! I started my career as a paraprofessional and then transitioned to a teaching role where I taught for 6 years.

After that, I had the privilege of opening a Tri-County school in Jackson County at the Eurma Hayes Center in Carbondale. I led there for 2 years. This year, I am excited to continue my career back where I started, at Ward School. Welcome to Ward!
