Principal's Message
Dear Students, Families, and Staff,
It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to another fantastic year at Ridgecrest Intermediate School. As I reflect on the years I’ve spent here, I am filled with immense gratitude for the opportunity to work with such an exceptional group of middle school students, dedicated staff, and supportive families.
Each day, I am inspired by our Raiders, and I am grateful that I can watch them grow into thoughtful, confident individuals. This is the highlight of my job, and I am continually amazed by their creativity and resilience.
I am incredibly proud of the positive and inclusive environment we have built together. It’s a place where students feel encouraged to explore, ask questions, take risks, and discover their passions. I am deeply committed to supporting each and every one of them as they develop academically, socially, and emotionally.
As we move forward this year, I look forward to continuing our work together creating a school culture where all students feel valued, challenged, and empowered. I encourage open communication between families and the school, and I am always here to listen, offer support, and work together to ensure a successful year for all.
Thank you for being part of the Ridgecrest community. Let’s make this year another amazing one filled with growth, learning, and memorable moments.
Warm regards,
Jaime Mancilla
Principal, Ridgecrest Intermediate School
