Dear RRES Students and Parents:
On behalf of the staff at Ridge Road Elementary School, I am happy to welcome you to the 2023-24 school year! We look forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure our children can achieve their highest potential. We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our children need support from both the home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a significant difference in your child’s education. As partners, we share the responsibility for our children’s success.
Meet the Principal
Christine McPherson, Principal
I am very excited to have the honor of serving as your principal this school year. Along with the teachers and staff, I will work hard to build a legacy of success led by our Superintendent Mrs. Vickie Harden, and our Washington County Board of Education. It is the mission of Washington County Schools for all children to excel in the areas of Academics, Arts, and Athletics. Instructionally, we will focus on the Georgia Standards of Excellence, engaging all students using performance tasks, the use of data to drive instruction, and providing consistent implementation of the curriculum in a rigorous manner so that we can continue to increase all students' achievement.
As your principal, it is important to me that everyone who steps through our doors-teachers, students, and parents are excited to be here! This attitude enables us to meet the challenges of academic excellence in a positive, fun, and nurturing environment. My door is always open and I welcome your input. Please feel free to call or email me to discuss any concerns you might have throughout the school year.
I look forward to working with you as a team to help each student at Ridge Road Elementary School meet their goals and have a successful school year!
Best Regards,
Mrs. Christine C. McPherson
RRES Principal
