Hello Dolphin Family!
I am both honored and humbled to be Principal of Central Riverside Elementary. I am entering my 2nd year as Principal of such a fine, fine school. To be a part of such a vibrant and welcoming community is awesome. I am impressed by our Dolphin Family mindset, and the passion, dedication, and commitment to each and every child that attends CRES.
Our goal is to prepare your little Dolphin for life-long learning experiences. In doing this, we remain Child Centered and Purpose Driven. As a Dolphin Family, we do this through our supportive and nurturing environment, delivering rigorous learning experiences to meet the needs of all students and remaining true to our vision that says, “Central Riverside Elementary is a school of excellence with high academic standards provided in a safe, nurturing environment.” We are an “A” school for the third year in a row, and it because we are true to our school’s vision!
I am a firm believer in the adage, “It takes a village…,” and parents play a key role in our village. I encourage parents to find opportunities this school year to become more involved in our school – volunteering in the classroom, becoming a PTA/SAC member, agreeing to be a lunch monitor daily, having lunch with your child, etc. There are ways in which you can help support your child at Central Riverside. Please be a part of our learning community.
As we Blast Off to Learning for the 2025 – 2026 school year, it will require all of us to become stellar astronauts who will man our spacecraft, so as to explore new frontiers of success and remain the BEST educational planet in the universe. So, suit up and get ready for the cosmic ride of a lifetime on the CRES CIX.
Thank you again for this opportunity to lead such an exceptional school, and I look forward to meeting everyone at one of the many engagements we will be having throughout the school year.
Educationally,
Mr. Simpson
Principal
