Lydia, the daughter of Ben and Laura Ackerman, is a 2021 graduate of Buckeye Central High School. She will be attending The Ohio State University-Mansfield this fall and studying early childhood education. **What inspired you to choose your intended major?** “When I was younger, I always told my mom I wanted to be a teacher just like my elementary teachers. I have had so many amazing and inspiring teachers who change lives every day, and I want to do the same. Also, my aunt has been a teacher for many years, and I have always loved helping her set up her classroom.” **What are your career and life goals after you graduate?** “I hope to return to Crawford County and become an elementary teacher. I hope to change students' lives every single day. I would love to continue my education to get my master's, and eventually become an administrator or principal.” Congratulations and good luck in the future, Lydia!
