Mr. Barry Dunn

20 years at the top of the nest!! We are an "A" Rated School once again!!! Since our opening in 2005, Tatum Ridge has maintained an “A” rating and continues to be a thriving community with caring, involved families. I begin my 11th year at Tatum Ridge and I continue to be excited to serve you all.

We look forward to a tremendous 2025-2026 School year! I am truly honored to be part of the Tatum Ridge Family and look forward to another great year. My wife, Heather, is a First Grade Teacher at Tuttle Elementary School and we have three children: Austin (18), Emma (16), and Maggie (14). They have all attended Tatum Ridge Elementary, and their education here has led them to much academic success.

Our faculty and support staff are working very hard to provide our students with a high-quality educational experience. With continuous family support and outstanding volunteers, our students are making tremendous strides in their educational journey.

As stated above, Tatum Ridge Elementary has been rated an "A" School every year since opening in 2005. We have a strong tradition of supportive, hard-working families. Please consider ways in which you can provide direct support for our school: join and participate with the PTO, Tatum Dads Group, volunteer in the classroom, help with our PBS celebrations, volunteer at the Color Run, or attend School Advisory Council meetings. We welcome your willingness to join us in the many activities and events we have going on throughout the school year.

As always, my door is open to you. Please stop by anytime.

Thank you for all you do!
