HI!  I’m Pam Ferris and I’m SUPER excited for the Academic Dean adventure, here at Lehman! Prior to discovering my education self, I spent 25 years in the legal industry and in commercial real estate in Central Florida.  I found my true calling in service to my community through high school education, where I've spent my most recent 16 years.

In that time, I loved serving as a high school ELA classroom teacher, Dyslexia Specialist, high school Reading Specialist, English Department Chair, student and teacher mentor, and, ultimately, the Campus Testing Coordinator and LPAC Administrator.  Whew!!  I am SO pumped to get to play more with curriculum and interventions this year.  It’s going to be such a great year for innovation!  

If you have questions about Advanced Academics, Academic Interventions, or anything having to do with State or College Board testing, please feel free to reach out—my door is always open! 

GO LOBOS!!! #ThePackIsBack!

Hey Lobo Nation what’s up!!  Really looking forward to the 2021-2022 school year with everyone.  I have been in education for over 20 years working as a teacher, coach, and administrator throughout the great state of Texas.  This year will begin my second year at Lehman HS serving as the Lead AP for our campus.  Students, Teachers, Parents and members of our community please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any questions, concerns, or ideas you might have to support, promote, and grow the LHS learning environment.  It’s a great day to be a Lobo!

Lobo Up!

Hello fellow Lobos! I just wanted to introduce myself. I am Carisa Bearden and will be joining the team as an assistant principal this 2021- 2022 school year. I live in the Hays CISD district with my 5-year-old daughter. I am originally from Mission, Texas and made my way up here for college and have been here since.

I received my bachelors and masters in Secondary Education at Texas State. Go bobcats! I later completed my principal certification through Lamar university. I did not start in the education field right after receiving my degree, but it was always something I was passionate about and went back to pursue my passion. I have not looked back since. Working with students and education is where I am the happiest.

Prior to joining the lobo family, I have taught at the middle school and high school level. Most recently I was at Del Valle High School where I served as a teacher, coach, LPAC coordinator and administrator throughout the years.  I am excited for this coming year and cannot wait to work together!
