Bobbie Henry Principal, Pueblo Elementary School

 

Welcome to Pueblo Elementary School! It is truly an honor to serve the students, families, and staff of this wonderful school community. At Pueblo, we are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where every student can grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Our goal is to ensure that each child feels valued, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential.

 

I am proud to be entering my 14th year as principal of Pueblo Elementary School and my 34th year in education. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to serve the students and families of the Crane Elementary School District. Before becoming a principal, I taught in several elementary grade levels and supported the district by providing professional development for teachers. I have now served as a school principal for 20 years, including 6 years at Valley Horizon Elementary School and the past 14 years at Pueblo.

 

My family has deep roots in Crane Schools. My husband and I have been married for 34 years (as of May 2026) and have called Yuma home throughout our entire marriage. Our children, as well as my nieces and nephews, attended Crane schools from kindergarten through 8th grade, and it is very special to now see the next generation begin their journey here. This year, our oldest grandchild is enrolled in Pre-K, continuing our family’s connection to this wonderful district.

 

I look forward to another great year working together to support the success of every student at Pueblo. Strong relationships between students, families, and staff are the foundation of our school, and together we will continue building a community where every child can thrive.
