Principal's Message

Welcome to Westside Elementary and WPCS/Westside! I am very excited to be your Principal for the 2023-2024 school year.
 
First, a little bit about me.  This is my 29th year in Education in various roles; teacher, Instructional Coach, Vice Principal and formerly the principal at Hillsdale Elementary and WPCS/Eastside Campus. A fun fact is that I was a classroom teacher for 14 years, and started my career right here in the heart of Rio Linda!  I feel like I have come back “home” in a lot of ways.  I could not be more proud to be back in this wonderful community.
 
Our staff have worked tirelessly to prepare and deliver the best possible educational environment for your children.  My goal is to ensure that our entire Westside and Westside Charter community are healthy, happy, safe and learn together to reach new levels of achievement.  I look forward to working with you to best support our students’ needs, meet their academic goals and have a successful school year.
           
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns or just a good story to share!  It is through our partnership that we will be able to do what’s best for students each and every day.
 
Respectfully,
Kris Jordan
