Principal
Welcome to Ripona Elementary School!
It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to Ripona Elementary School! Last school year, 2024-2025, marked my first full year as principal, and I am thrilled to continue this journey alongside our amazing students, dedicated staff, and supportive families.
As a longtime Ripon resident of over 18 years, I am deeply committed to our community. I began my career in education as a paraprofessional and have served as a librarian, middle school teacher, and most recently, a high school vice principal. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Liberal Studies, a multiple subject teaching credential, and a Master’s in Educational Leadership.
Returning to Ripon Unified has been incredibly rewarding. I look forward to building on our momentum and ensuring every child at Ripona thrives academically, socially, and emotionally.
Let’s make it another wonderful year, Mustangs!
Warmly,
Aline White
Principal
