Principal's Message

Welcome to Central Elementary School! 

“Central Elementary is a small public school in downtown Ferndale that provides a welcoming, caring and inclusive community.  Collaboratively with students, staff and families, we provide equitable opportunities to learn and grow. We prepare each student with the necessary tools to be a lifelong learner, caring community member, and their best self.”

I am thrilled to be a part of an incredibly dynamic staff that is committed to working with you and your students.  We look forward to working and collaborating with you as we start this year’s adventure.

Please do not hesitate to contact us and let us know if we can be of any assistance.  We are here to help you and, most importantly to help your child be successful.

It’s going to be a great year!
