Mrs. Tara LeCount, Principal
It is an honor to collaborate with the students, staff, and community to promote excellence and lifelong learning! I proudly joined the Diamond Canyon School staff as an administrator in 2007. I love being a Coyote!!!
My background includes growing up with both parents as educators. My dad retired from being a Superintendent in Kansas after 37 years in education and my mom retired as a proud high school teacher. From an early age, I knew education was for me!
I grew up in Kansas and am still a raving Kansas State University fan! I earned my Masters in Educational Leadership/Building Leadership in 2004. After completing my masters, I achieved National Board for Professional Teaching Standards and was certified in Early to Middle Level Literacy.
My wonderful husband brought us to Arizona where we enjoy the beautiful weather and good friends. We enjoy spending time with our children, Tyler and Taylor. Both of my children started at Diamond Canyon when they were three years old in our preschool program. Diamond Canyon is a choice I have made confidently for my own family. My son was promoted in May 2023 to high school and my daughter is loving her middle school experience as a Coyote! Our family loves to travel and make memories.
I am PROUD to be a COYOTE!
