We just wrapped up our FastBridge testing, and the growth we’re seeing is incredible. Our students are proving that hard work pays off.

It’s not just about the numbers; it’s about building confidence in learning. Way to go, Ridgeview Elementary scholars!

Here are just a few of our smart students!

We have our very first two-time Hallway Hero! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♀️

It was a total photo finish this week, with the competition staying neck-and-neck until Friday afternoon. Ultimately, Mrs. Beck’s 5th-grade class pulled ahead to prove they haven’t lost their touch! 🐎

The Hero Gear: Since this is their second time being named the best in the building, Mrs. Beck is officially adding the Hero Cape to her collection! 🦸‍♀️ She has reclaimed her spot on the Mustang Superhero cutout in the hall, and she’s looking more heroic than ever.

Huge props to our 5th graders for "reining it in" in the hallway and keeping their quiet voices, having straight lines and safe bodies.

Give it up for our latest Hallway Hero winner, Mr. Mitchell! This group showed us exactly what it means to be a Mustang in motion.

Hallway Heroes have level 0 voices, straight lines and safe bodies when they are in the hallway

Celebrating our first-ever Hallway Heroes! 🦸‍♀️🐎 Congrats to Mrs. Beck's 5th graders for setting the gold standard last week. They earned this win by being quiet in the hallway and having a straight, safe line.

Her class earned her the super hero chain and her face on the super hero in the office for the week! We are so proud of Mrs. Beck's class for leading the way!

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!

Mr. Young
