Good Afternoon,

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

In keeping with our firm commitment to effective communication with our school community, I am writing to advise you of a currently ongoing situation. On the advice and request of the Colfax Police Department, we are keeping all students and staff inside the building, until further notice. This is in response to ongoing police activity occurring near our school. There is no immediate threat or danger to our students, staff, or building.

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.
