Diamond Boutte’

Diamond is a passionate and dedicated educator with a strong academic foundation from Southern University at New Orleans, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Bachelor of Arts in Child Development and Family Studies, and a Master’s degree in Criminal Justice. Her background includes several years of experience working with children both professionally and voluntarily, including providing ABA therapy to children with autism.

Diamond’s top goal as an educator is to ensure that every student knows they have trusted adults they can turn to for support. She is committed to creating a classroom environment where students feel safe, seen, and respected. Her greatest strength as an educator is her ability to let students be authentically themselves—while reinforcing the importance of respect and kindness. She works hard to build meaningful connections with her students and make sure they know she is always there for them.

What Diamond looks forward to most at Athlos Academy is watching her students grow and transform over the course of the school year—academically, socially, and emotionally. She was originally introduced to Athlos through her daughter’s enrollment in kindergarten, and after seeing how much her daughter loved the school, she knew she wanted to be a part of the Athlos community. When a teaching opportunity opened, she didn’t hesitate to join.

Drawn to Athlos Academy’s unique and holistic model, Diamond values its focus on developing the whole child through the Three Pillars: Prepared Mind, Healthy Body, and Performance Character. She strives to embody and model the Athlos Performance Character traits in her everyday life—both inside and outside of the classroom.
