Holding Hands, Hearts, and High Expectations

Welcome to Ridpath Primary School. We are very proud of our school and the fact that we are located right in the heart of the Greencastle community. Our proximity to DePauw University allows us to have a great deal of extra assistance and many partnerships that help make Ridpath unique.  We currently have approximately 215 students in kindergarten through second grade being nurtured by a dedicated, caring, and hard-working staff.  As the principal at Ridpath, it is a privilege to spend time with our students and staff.  Please stop by and visit us, or even volunteer.
