Yvonne Fordham | Learning Coach
My Email: yvonne.fordham@washk12.orgHi my name is Yvonne Fordham. I am so excited to be a part of the Diamond Valley family as the Learning Coach. I graduated from Hurricane High and managed a hair salon before starting my own family. I was fortunate enough to be a stay at home mom and volunteered in my children’s classrooms. This is where I found my love for teaching and those little faces lighting up with “Aha” moments. I went back to school and graduated from Dixie College (now known as Utah Tech University) I began my teaching career at Hurricane Elementary where I taught for five years in third and first grade. I made the decision to move closer to my home and children and accepted a position at Majestic Fields Elementary. I taught first grade dual immersion and looped up with my students and taught second grade dual immersion (best two years ever!) I then moved into the role of the Reading Interventionist for three years. I have a Masters Degree in Learning and Technology, an ESL endorsement, Gifted and Talented endorsement, and Reading endorsement. I have recently received my Administration License and completed the LETRS program. I have a love for professional development and teaching literacy.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I like all things outdoors and NFL football. I look forward to my future here at Diamond Valley and getting to know the students and community.

Sari Jones | Finance Secretary
My Email: sari.jones@washk12.orgMy name is Sari Jones and I have lived in Diamond Valley for the past 16 years. I grew up in Southern California and moved to Utah as a teenager. I LOVE to continually learn new things and would spend all day reading books if I could. I have 4 kids, two of which have attended Diamond Valley Elementary. Many of you have seen my husband and myself helping in the classrooms at Diamond Valley over the years, and we absolutely love what an amazing school it is. In my free time I love to experiment with recipes in the kitchen. Luckily my family likes everything I make!! I also enjoy spending time with my family going on adventures and learning the history of the places we visit.
