Principal

Welcome to Ponderosa Elementary School. Our faculty and staff are committed to academic excellence and a safe and caring learning environment for every child. Our goal is for all students to meet or exceed grade level standards by the end of the school year.  We encourage you to partner with us in helping us to accomplish our goals.  I am confident that we will have a great year as we focus on our theme of "Reimagining Learning.”  I invite you to contact me or stop by the school.  Together we can make a positive difference in the lives of our children.

We are here to serve and to fulfill our school’s mission.
