About the Administration

Jeremy Ricken, Principal

Thank you for visiting the East View Elementary School website! Our mission at East View is to ensure learning and individual achievement for every student. You will find a wealth of information here on our website, but I also invite you to contact or visit us to share any questions, concerns, and especially successes.

I have been the principal of East View since 2002. I had previously served as an elementary assistant principal in both the Plainfield and Indian Prairie school districts. I began my career in education as a speech-language pathologist in the Indian Prairie school district. I received my bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in speech-language pathology from Northwestern University. I later received my master’s degree in educational administration from Northern Illinois University. My wife and I moved to Oswego in 1998 and have added a son and a daughter to our family since then.

I am proud to serve with an outstanding faculty focused on providing the very best for our students.

Phil Chapman, Assistant Principal
