Welcome to Terrace Elementary !

My name is Mrs. Tiffany O'Hara and I am proud to be a part of the Ankeny Community School district serving as the lead principal at Terrace Elementary.

I began my educational career as a first grade teacher in a nearby district.  Before joining the Ankeny administrative team,  I served as the lead administator of a K-8 building in a nearby district.   I received my Masters of Science degree from Iowa State Universtiy and I am currently enrolled in the Specialist program at Drake University.  I enjoy being in the classroom both as a learner and a leader!
