Our students thrive in a caring community grounded in high standards, where families, staff, and the broader community work together to support academic and emotional growth for every learner. At Pioneer Ridge, we are committed to fostering a culture where all students feel valued and empowered to succeed. Guided by our STAR expectations—Safe, Trustworthy, Accountable, and Respectful—we prepare students to become positive, productive members of both our school and the greater community.
We’re proud of the work we do, and even more proud of the students we serve. Welcome to the Ridge!
Dr. Justin Hargens
Principal, Pioneer Ridge Middle School
