This Week on the Ridge

It has been another wonderful week at the Ridge! Congratulations to our band and chorus members for their outstanding concert last night. A special thank you to Ms. Nedder and Mr. Healy for helping students prepare for this memorable event.

Students also enjoyed a meaningful opportunity to read with members of the Center for Active Living. It was wonderful to see the conversations, smiles, and relationships that developed through this special partnership.

As the school year continues to wind down, students have been enjoying a variety of field trips and outdoor learning experiences that extend learning beyond the classroom walls.
