Meet the Principal

Hello Kyrene de los Lagos Family,

The 2022-2023 school year is here!  I am thrilled to begin my 3rd year here at Lagos with you.  I am originally from Cincinnati, Ohio. (Go Bengals!) However, I have lived in Arizona with my husband and two children for the past 19 years. My husband and I spend much of our personal time watching our son (12th grade) play soccer and daughter (8th grade) compete in cheer. My core values are my faith, kindness, positivity, and transparency.

This will be my 12th year as an elementary school principal. It has always been a genuine pleasure and honor to serve others in this capacity. In addition to being a principal, I have spent numerous years working in other educational capacities, including classroom teacher, instructional coach, and assistant principal. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Communications from Ohio University and hold two master’s degrees in Elementary Education and Educational Leadership.

During my first year in Kyrene (2019), I had the privilege of overseeing the Dual Language Program at Kyrene Middle School. It was incredibly rewarding seeing the work that had been done in the elementary grades to shape and prepare our middle school students. I am honored to continue working with Dual Language students and families here at Lagos. You will be delighted by their proficiency as they progress through elementary school. Kyrene’s Dual Language framework is a remarkable pathway our students benefit from tremendously. I look forward to positively and purposefully working together with you, as we invest our time and energy in an incredibly invaluable resource - our children.

Here's to a GREAT school year!

Mrs. Felicia Williams
