Stay safe,

Rock. Paper. Scissors. Ridgeview style! ✊✋✌️
During yesterday’s School Improvement Day, Ridgeview staff settled some very important matters the professional way… with a Rock–Paper–Scissors showdown. Bragging rights were on the line, and the competition was fierce (but friendly!).
As part of our March Wellness theme, we’re focusing on taking care of ourselves and each other—and sometimes that starts with a few laughs and a little healthy competition. A strong team that can laugh together is a team that supports each other every day.

Come enjoy the Ridgeview Musical "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" this weekend! Saturday, March 7th at 6:00pm or Sunday, March 8th at 2:00pm. Tickets are just $5 per person at the door. The cast and crew have worked hard to prepare a great show and you will not be disappointed!

🌟 Staff Shout-outs: Elementary Staff
Big rounds of applause for our incredible elementary team members who earned Staff Shout-outs last month! 👏✨ There is nothing better than seeing our staff lift each other up and celebrate the hard work happening in every classroom and hallway.
We’re so proud of the culture we’re building together, and we can’t wait to see even more shout-outs roll in this month. Keep that kindness coming! 🍎💫

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!



Congrats to the Lexington-Ridgeview Comp Cheer team on winning the Sectional today. They will compete next weekend at State! More details will be shared during the week!
Great job athletes and coaches!
