Our School

Message to the Community

These are exciting and challenging times. This is especially true at Ridgeview where the staff, students, parents, and community members work together to improve student learning and address school issues in a democratic fashion. At the core of this democratic process is a ten member site council that serves as a decision making and advisory body. This group represents the interests of students, teachers, school employees, parents, administrators and the community. The site council has identified the following goals:

• Improve communication and involve all members of the learning community
• Integrate the district strategic plan with the school goals
• Ensure ongoing assessment
• Make decisions that improve student learning

Your active participation is an essential element in providing a program that is responsive to the needs of our students and community. We encourage parents to attend Parent - Teacher Organization (PTO) meetings and join the ranks of our active volunteer program. Members of the community at large are invited and encouraged to join us too! Your involvement and input are key to the success of our school program. 

Student Expectations

We believe every person within the school community has a responsibility to create a safe learning environment and has the right to complete these responsibilities without the interference of others. To accomplish these goals, Ridgeview students will:

• Respect the rights of people and property.
• Obey school patrols, teachers, and other school personnel.
• Play safely.
• Express feelings positively using appropriate language and gestures.
• Use "Talk it Out" procedures to deal with conflicts in a positive way.
• Behave properly throughout the school environment.

Our goal is to work cooperatively to enhance learning!
