Counselor

Ms. Dickson was born and raised in Arizona, the proud daughter of a cotton farmer. She earned a Bachelor's of Education and a Master’s of Education Counseling from Northern Arizona University.

Lerona has been in the field of education for over 30 years.  She has served as a teacher, high school counselor and administrator in Arizona and California.  She was thrilled to move to DMK8 in 2024 to spend her days working directly with elementary students. At DMK8, Lerona is able to utilize her skill-set and passion to ensure students have a safe place to talk, small group counseling, as well as classroom lessons. 

In her free time, Lerona loves to hike, cook, garden, read, and travel around the world. She has spent her professional life serving students of all ages and that is truly her passion!
