Welcome

Welcome to Central Ridge Elementary School, Citrus County's Newest School! We opened our doors to students for the first time on August 18th, 2008. We are excited for the opportunity to work with our parents and the community to provide the education every child deserves.  The teachers and staff at Central Ridge strive to maintain the educational excellence that parents have come to expect of the Citrus County School District. The State of Florida has rated Citrus County School District as a top rated district in the  state.
      We are committed at Central Ridge to provide all of our students with the academic and social skills to promote a healthy, and successful educational career both after elementary school and beyond.  Together, we CAN make a difference!

New Starting Time 2010-2011


This school year, Central Ridge will have first "bark" at 8:50. Second Bark will be at 9:00 and the Tardy Bark will be at 9:10. Students will be considered late after the Tardy Bark.

Study Island Available

     Central Ride provides every student an account to Study Island, an online program that aids in student standard mastery. The Study Island Sunshine State Standards Mastery Program is specifically designed to help students master the content specified in the Sunshine State Standards and FCAT tests.  Study Island is available any time, and keeps track of your student's progress. Your teacher has a copy of your child's username and password, or you can email Mr. Raynor at raynore@citrus.k12.fl.us for your child's information.
