Welcome Conrad Crist as new principal at RMHS
Jan. 29, 2025
We are excited to announce that Conrad Crist has been named the next principal of Rocky Mountain High School, beginning with the 2025-26 school year. Mr. Crist is already a dedicated leader at Rocky, serving as assistant principal and athletic director, and he is eager to continue supporting our students, staff, and families in this new role.
A lifelong Fort Collins resident and graduate of RMHS, Mr. Crist’s connection to our community runs deep. He attended Bennett Elementary and Blevins Middle School before earning both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Colorado State University. His 22 years in education include experience as a teacher, coach, and administrator, and he is passionate about creating an environment where every student can thrive.
As a husband and father of two daughters, Mr. Crist understands the importance of strong school-community relationships and is committed to fostering a welcoming and supportive environment for all students. We are excited for this next chapter at Rocky under his leadership.
Please join us in congratulating Mr. Crist!
A message of gratitude
As your superintendent, I want to convey my gratitude and humility for the ability to partner with you.
My family and I are incredibly excited to be in Northern Colorado and a part of the PSD community. I look forward to listening, learning and leading with you.
51风流 is strong – the product of your service, deep engagement and commitment to ensuring that we Educate... Every Child, Every Day. We have a significant responsibility to work as a team to ensure that our young people have the opportunities they deserve to grow into their best selves. Education is, after all, all about connections – those among students, teachers, staff, coaches, families and community members – that enrich and elevate the lives of others.
"Public education changed my life trajectory and filled me with hope, love, confidence and a sense of belonging. It was where my beliefs solidified regarding the role of education in people’s lives."
With our staff, I will promote collaboration and communication among all stakeholders in this community. We will strive to build and deliver exceptional educational experiences every day for all students.
With empathy and transparency, I will work with you, side by side, to make sure that our goals for students become a reality. This work will be rooted in three equity-centered commitments and core values: visionary district leadership, inclusive district culture and instructional excellence. Moving forward as a community, it will take all of us working in tandem to effectively allocate our time, people and resources in ways that align with the goal of achievement for all students.
With appreciation,
Brian Kingsley
Superintendent
