My name is Tanya Sanderfoot and I am proud to serve as the principal of Ripon Area School District’s 4PS program! Our 4PS program is a voluntary, comprehensive child development program available to all children within the Ripon Area School District who are 4 on or before September 1st.
4PS is a play-based program designed to nurture the social, emotional, motor, early numeracy and literacy skills of four-year-old children. RASD’s 4PS program is implemented using a community collaborative model that builds on existing resources within our community. On behalf of the faculty and staff, I want to welcome you to Ripon Area School District!
A little about myself: I received my Bachelor’s from the University of Wisconsin - Oshkosh. I spent 9 years teaching in an elementary classroom for Kimberly Area School District. During that time, I received many opportunities for leadership within my school and the district. Those opportunities led me to pursue a higher degree. I earned my Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from Concordia University of Wisconsin in 2010 and spent several years searching for a school district that would be a good fit for my family and me. This is my first principalship and it is an honor to work for Ripon Area School District! I am very eager to work with the families of Ripon as well as the community to make Barlow Park Elementary School a positive learning environment for all students.
Please feel free to contact myself or other school personnel with any questions, concerns or ideas that arise. The staff and I look forward to getting to know you and assisting each child to reach his/her highest potential. Have a great year!
