Welcome to the Ray Crowe Elementary School Family. It is with great honor that our school is named after Mr. Ray Crowe. Ray Crowe was a coach, a politician, and a community leader. He graduated from our community’s very own Whiteland High School in 1934. Those who knew him say that he led with confidence, kindness, grit, and focus.

Ray Crowe Elementary School is a school in which we all belong to one another. We strive to set a high standard for ourselves and our students in all that we do. Rigorous academics and celebrations of every success are driving forces at RCES. We value kindness, honest communication, and the relentless pursuit of growth. We lean into conversations that will foster increased understanding of and love for one another.

To be a Ray Crowe staff member, student, or family member is to be a part of a larger community of individuals who seek connection and understanding through valuing our differences.

As the proud principal of RCES, I welcome you to our school family!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Cirsten Short
Ray Crowe Elementary School Principal
