Attendance & Accountability #RidgeviewEveryDayCounts
Ridgeview students participated in the Illinois Music Education All-State choirs, the last weekend of January. 6th grade students: Anne Benton, Ehvilynn Chapman, Ashlyn Donaldson, and Riley Scaggs were selected to participate in the 6th grade All-State Chorus. Alex Kennedy was selected through an audition process to participate in the All-State High School Choir. The 6th graders rehearsed Saturday for their performance; while Kennedy spent three days preparing for his performance on Saturday afternoon.
No students today, but the learning is still happening at Ridgeview CUSD! 🙌
The Mustang staff are in session today- sharing ideas, building skills, and strengthening what we do for kids every day. 🧠✨
Best of luck to the Lexington-Ridgeview Comp Cheer team today as they compete in the IHSA State Finals! They will perform at 9:40 am. The finals can be viewed on the NFHS Website, search IHSA, or can be seen in person at Grossinger Motors Arena in Bloomington.
41 Heart screenings were completed yesterday at school! Thank you to the volunteers from Elite and our parent volunteer for making everything run smoothly. ISU MCN students were also helping during their first day of clinicals at the school. A big thank you to our donors Gibson Area Hospital and Peoples State Bank of Colfax, they have covered the cost making all the screenings free.
Mrs. Moreland's Life Skills and math classes are staying warm by making hot chocolate. They topped their warm drinks with authentic Dutch Stroopwafels made in the Netherlands! YUM!
Remember: Early Dismissal Day, this Thursday, February 5th, 2025

Last Friday, Ridgeview CUSD 19 hosted Midday Madness, and the energy was absolutely electric. It wasn’t just about the fun—it was about community. Seeing two districts come together as one was a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we support each other.
A massive thank you to Ben Tracy for joining us. His message was incredibly impactful, sparking conversations that we know will continue long after the final whistle. 🎤💬
This was more than just an event; it was a day of lasting memories for everyone in the stands. Check out the highlights! 👇

Dear Families,
As we look ahead to the end of the week, I want to inform you we are closely monitoring the extreme cold temperatures forecasted for this Friday.
The safety of our students and staff is always our primary concern. At this time, no decision has been made regarding a change to our school schedule.
We plan to communicate a final decision as early as possible to give you adequate time to prepare. In the event that we are unable to hold in-person classes on Friday, it is highly likely that we will transition to an e-learning day.
Any updates or changes will be shared through our standard communication channels, including our automated calling system, text alerts, email, and the district website.
Thank you for your continued support of Ridgeview Schools!
