Ridgeview Parents,
We could use your help. This evening a suspicious email was sent to emails in the @ridgeview19.org domain.
The email came from smeints@ridgeview19.org
Regarding job opportunities. This e-mail is not legitimate.
Please have your child go into their school email and if they received the email have them delete it. Do not interact with the email.
If your child did interact with this email, please email me:
eyoung@ridgeview19.org
I will need your child's name/email address to forward to our IT department.
Thank you for your help and have a great weekend!
Mr. Young
Good Morning,
Here is an update on today's activities.
The HS Girls Basketball game will now be played at Lexington HS at 1pm. Reminder this is an IHSA regional game, so no passes will be honored.
The HS Boys Basketball game has been postponed. A make up date will be communicated in the coming days.
The Princess Ball scheduled for this evening has been rescheduled for tomorrow from 2-4pm at the elementary school (so long as water has been restored).
Thank you again for your patience and understanding!
Mr. Young
Good Morning ,
At this time the Village of Colfax has experienced a water main break, resulting in there being no water throughout the entire village.
As a result the school building is closed to use. We will be communicating in the coming hours any scheduling changes that may be necessary for events and activities today.
Thank you for your understanding!
Mr. Young
