Becky Byrd is the Literacy Coach at Lynn Road Elementary. Literacy is her passion and she loves teaching children how to read. As a child, Ms. Byrd loved to read. Her favorite book was On the Banks of Plum Creek by Laura Ingalls Wilder. This book had her hooked on the “Little House Series” and caused her to eventually read all of the books in that series. Ms. Byrd remembers feeling as though she had really "arrived as a reader" when she finished On the Banks of Plum Creek because it was such a thick chapter book.

Becky loved to dance, play the piano, and spend time with her cat, Pumpkin. She LOVED cats. In fact, every story she wrote in third grade was about a cat. Since elementary school, Ms. Byrd has always known that she wanted to teach. She is thankful that she can fulfill her childhood dreams here at Lynn Road.
