About Me
Hello! My name is Lydia Hindman. I am originally from Ft. Worth, Texas, but Prattville has been home for almost 30 years. I am married to Mark Hindman and have three sons, Caleb, Stephen and Daniel, who attended Autauga County schools. They are now an attorney, aerospace engineer in the U.S. Space Force and chemist! We also are also blessed to have 5 precious grandchildren! This is my 20th year at Pine Level Elementary. Thank you for the privilege of teaching your child. I love teaching children to read and helping them learn to LOVE reading and learning! My hobbies include reading, baking, singing, playing the piano, and spending as much time as I can with my grandchildren!
