April showers bring…..indoor recess!!! 🌸🌼. Students draw, teach their friends how to crochet and play!





Our kids worked hard during state testing! They were able to earn tickets if they were prepared and worked hard on the test! We held the ticket drawing and student chose prizes! We had gift cards, spirit wear, and Ridgeview coupons this year! Students who chose coupons can choose the game in PE, read the announcements with Mr. Hutley or be a special guest reader in a classroom! It was a hit! Great work Mustangs!



Let the retirement countdown begin!

Ocean projects and writing parties are only two of the activities our 2nd grade team plans for their students! Please read the Ridgeview Review this week to learn about this teaching team!



SAVE THE DATE!

PARENTS - we need you!
The S.T.A.N.G.S is a parent/teacher group that provides resources for the students and staff at Ridgeview Elementary. They provide meals for teachers at P/T conferences, gifts for staff recognition, field trip funding, field day funding/volunteers and participate in many other activities! Parent participation is the key to making this organization successful. We would like to see more parents bring new thoughts and ideas to our monthly meetings and to spearhead future activities.
We are hosting an informational meeting on Tuesday, April 5 at 7:00pm in the High School Media Center. This is open to any parent who wants to learn more about this group. This is a great way to help our community by supporting the students and staff at Ridgeview. We want this group to remain an impactful resource for the students and staff at Ridgeview Elementary. We hope you can join us!
