My name is Lisa Chambers and I have had the honor of growing and learning within this community in various capacities since 2018. After working in athletics and then as a middle school English teacher here at St. Ignatius, I was then called and inspired to support the diverse needs of our Catholic School community further. Now a school psychologist, I can serve our community in a different way.
