The Crest Ridge R-VII School District is pleased to announce the hiring of Dr. Barie Krewson as our next Secondary Principal.
Dr. Krewson, a resident of the Crest Ridge community, attended Crest Ridge schools and graduated from Crest Ridge High School in 2001.
Dr. Krewson graduated with her Bachelor of Science in English Education from Missouri State University in 2005. She later earned her Masters in Educational Leadership from William Woods University, her Specialist in Educational Leadership (Principalship) from Arkansas State University, and most recently was conferred with her Doctorate in Educational Leadership from Southwest Baptist University in 2025.
Dr. Krewson began her teaching career as an English Language Arts teacher in the Butler School District in 2006 and has spent 16 years teaching ELA in the Odessa School District.
Dr. Krewson states, "Crest Ridge is my home. It is the community where I have spent nearly my entire life—learning, growing, serving, and building relationships. Having my own children enrolled in the district speaks to my trust and faith in the school leaders and teachers who provide them with a meaningful education each day."
Dr. Krewson is married to Paul Krewson and they have two sons who attend Crest Ridge. Brock is a junior at Crest Ridge High School and Max is a fifth grader at Crest Ridge Elementary!
The district is excited to have Dr. Krewson join our team, continue our culture of excellence, and lead our secondary students and staff to success.
Dr. Krewson will begin her new role in July 2026!

Kindergarten through 3rd graders have been learning about the Olympics over the past couple of weeks. We've had our own ski jump competitions, curling matches, and ice skating practice. 4th graders spent some time researching the various events and cheering on the USA.
