Principal's Message

Dear Students, Families, and Community Members,

It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I introduce myself as the new principal of Apollo-Ridge Elementary School. As the High School Principal for the past nine years, I am honored to join this vibrant school community and excited to begin this journey with each of you.

My goal is to build strong relationships with students, staff, and families, and to foster a positive, inclusive, and engaging learning environment where all students can thrive. I believe in open communication, high expectations, and a shared commitment to academic success and personal growth.

Together, we will continue the important work of preparing our students for bright futures. I look forward to meeting you, hearing your ideas, and working side by side to make ARES a place where everyone feels supported, challenged, and proud.


With gratitude and excitement,

Dan Consuegra

Principal
