Principal's Message

Welcome to Cedarwood Elementary, the Home of the Proud Hawks! As we begin our 30th school year, we reflect on the traditions of excellence that have shaped our campus since our founding in 1996. Cedarwood’s commitment to developing students who demonstrate integrity, respect, and responsibility remains at the heart of everything we do. We believe that all students deserve the opportunity to reach their fullest potential—in mind, body, and spirit—and we are proud to partner with families in this important work.

At Cedarwood, we uphold the vision of the "Clovis Sparthenian," a student who exemplifies total well-being and strong character. Through their actions, our students learn to become positive, respectful, and community-minded individuals—both in and out of the classroom. We are dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive, and challenging environment where every child is supported academically, socially, and emotionally. Our teachers and staff take extraordinary measures to model high standards while embracing continuous improvement and innovation in our teaching practices.

Our mission has always been student-focused, and we recognize the vital role that families and the community play in our success. The unique partnership between Cedarwood and our community is one we treasure deeply. Our Parent Teacher Club (PTC) continues to provide incredible support, and we encourage all parents and guardians to get involved in shaping the experiences of our students. This shared dedication ensures that our children not only thrive today but are also well-prepared for tomorrow.

As we celebrate this milestone year, we remain committed to excellence, tradition, and the bright future ahead. Thank you for your ongoing support of Cedarwood Elementary. We are honored to serve this outstanding community and look forward to another fantastic school year. Go Hawks!


 
Sincerely, 
 
Amanda Howes
