Second Grade - 02
My name is Lindsey Gibbons, and I’m excited to be teaching second grade at Idlewild this year. This is my 15th year teaching in the district and my first year at Idlewild. I’m originally from Wisconsin and earned my teaching certification from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. I also hold a Master of Science in Reading Education from Arkansas State University and am a National Board Certified Teacher. For me, the best part of teaching is watching the growth that each student makes throughout the year! In my free time, I enjoy traveling, game nights with friends, reading, and spending time with my husband and our dog, Pepper!

Second Grade - 03
"My name is Aubrey Bakalekos, and I am a second-grade teacher at Idlewild! This will be my first year teaching, and I am so excited to support my students’ learning journeys. I attended the University of Memphis, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Education, with a focus on PreK-3rd grade. I enjoy learning, working out, and spending time with my daughter!
I have a strong passion for teaching, which started when I was in elementary school! I hope for a year full of laughter, smiles, and “lightbulb” moments! My goal is to be the kind of teacher I needed when I was my students' age—someone who is supportive, understanding, and truly invested in their growth."
Thank you,
Aubrey Bakalekos
