Renae Cruz, Dean of Students

I hail from the great state of Wisconsin, and am happy to have called Arizona home since 1999. I am close to my 30th year in education and have been a part of Gilbert Public Schools for over 25 years.

I have loved working both in the classroom and as an administrator at both the elementary and junior high levels and am excited to be a member of the Highland Park Elementary team in the role of Dean. Every year I look forward to meeting all of our students and families and working to support their educational journey and experience as a Highland Hornet!

After school and on weekends, I love spending my free time cheering on my favorite athlete, my daughter, Isabella.
