Leadership
Principal - Dr. Sherry Wharton-Carey
My name is Dr. Sherry Wharton-Carey and this is my eighth year as the Principal here, at Elizabeth D. Redd Elementary School. I came to E. D. Redd from Bellevue Elementary where I served as Principal for seven years. Before going to Bellevue, I was an Assistant Principal for four years in Hopewell, VA. Prior to that, I was at Mary Munford Elementary where I taught third and fourth grade over a period of four years.
I graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1994 with both a Bachelors of Science Degree in Psychology and a Masters of Teaching in Early Childhood Education. I received my Doctorate in Education from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2014.
I am a proud mother of twin girls who are currently attending college. In my spare time, I love spending time with my children as well as traveling and shopping.
Assistant Principal - Mrs. Ebonee Belcher
My name is Ebonee Belcher and I am the proud assistant principal at Elizabeth D. Redd Elementary.
I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees from Virginia State University. I am currently working on my doctorate at Regent University.
My career in education began as a 4th-grade teacher at Southampton Elementary here in Richmond. I was also a Title I math teacher at Maymont Elementary before it became the Pre-K center.
I enjoy working with the students and community of Elizabeth D. Redd. We exemplify daily what resilience, pride, and success look like. #WeAreRPS #WeAreRedd
