Ridgeview Woods class to create wooden Military Service Flags
Ridgeview Schools will be hosting a Veteran’s Day Assembly on Wednesday, November 11th. Our 7th Grade Woods class would be honored to create a Military Service wood flag for any Ridgeview community members who desire to have one created. Service flags are typically displayed by the family members of active service members in the US Military and members of the US Military who died in the line of duty. These flags feature a white background with a red border and one or more stars. Each star represents a military family member; Blue stars are symbolic of family members in active duty, while Gold stars represent family members who died during service. Whether you have a family member that is active, or if you have had family members that are no longer in service or have passed on, we would still like to make you a Service wood flag to display in your home as a token of our gratitude for those who have and are still serving our country. Below is an example picture for reference.
If your family would be interested in having a wood flag created, free of charge, please reach out to Brent Harms bharms@ridgeview19.org for further information. We plan to provide these flags to families during our Veteran’s Day Assembly at school, so please plan to attend if possible. Please share with any Ridgeview community members who may be interested
At approximately 1:45pm today a message was shared regarding ongoing police activity occurring near the school.
At this time, the Colfax Police Department has given the all clear and our activities have returned to normal.
Thank you to the Colfax Police Department for their ongoing support today. As a result, we experienced very little disruption to our day. At no time were any students or staff in danger.
The safety of our students and staff remains a top priority and your ongoing support is crucial to the continued success of students and staff at Ridgeview!
Sincerely,
Erik Young
Superintendent

We are only doing this out of an abundance of caution.
Our School Resource Officer is onsite, and classes are proceeding as normal throughout the building.
Once more details become available, I will share those with you. If you have any questions please feel free to contact the Ridgeview District Office.

Ridgeview Class of 2019!
Remember when you wrote a book in 2nd grade and your teacher (either Ms. Sands or Mrs. House) had it made into a hardback book? You received a copy then, and a copy was kept at school.
Seventeen years later, those second copies have made their way to the District Office desk and we would love to get yours back to you!
If you or one of your family members would like to stop in and pick up your book, please contact Taryn Lopshire in the Ridgeview District Office at (309)-723-5111, tlopshire@ridgeview19.org to verify your copy is here and arrange a time to do that.
Happy IT Professionals Day to the unsung heroes of our tech world! Whether you’re stopping cyber threats before breakfast, fixing mysterious glitches, or politely reminding us to "try turning it off and on again," we couldn't keep things running without you. Thank you for keeping us connected, secure, and frustration-free!🔧💻
