Teacher, 25, killed by Oregon school shooter ID’d as volleyball coach Megan Lambert: ‘She lit up the room’
Lambert graduated from Boise State University in May 2023 and Silver Rail was her first teaching job — though she had subbed at the elementary school for many years prior, her family said.
“She loved Silver Rail. This was her dream job,” the statement said.
Lambert was slaughtered alongside three students — ages 5, 8 and 11 — before a heroic bystander, Kaylub Giamanco, intervened and fatally shot the teen inside a special education classroom.
Teacher Becky Drury and a fourth child, a 7-year-old girl who uses a wheelchair, were also shot during the carnage, cops and sources said.
Lambert’s family also said that they “know that the bystander is going through a rough time, but we are grateful, and we think that he is a hero.”
Drury, 54, an award-winning educational assistant, was identified by family members as the critically wounded teacher.
