Welcome to the 2026–2027 school year! My name is Mrs. Kristy Streff, and I am honored to continue serving as the principal of Carter High School. As we begin another exciting year together, I am grateful for the opportunity to work alongside our dedicated staff, supportive families, and outstanding students as we continue building a culture of excellence.
As a proud Rialto resident and parent of two Rialto Unified graduates, I remain deeply committed to our community and to the success of every Carter Lion. I believe every student has the potential to achieve at high levels when they are supported, challenged, and connected to a caring school community.
At Carter High School, we maintain high expectations because we are committed to preparing every student to be college, career, and life ready. We encourage all students to become involved in campus life, discover their passions, and find their place as a Carter Lion. Whether through academics, athletics, arts, clubs, career pathways, or student leadership, every student has an opportunity to grow, contribute, and proudly represent "The Den."
Together, we will continue fostering a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment where students feel valued, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential. I look forward to partnering with our students, families, staff, and community as we make the 2026–2027 school year one of excellence, growth, and lasting success.
Go Lions!
