Please welcome our new Speech & Language Pathologist, Mrs. Petersen!

From helping children find their voice to supporting adults with articulation, language, and swallowing safety, your patience, expertise, and boundless compassion make all the difference.
Thank you to our Speech Pathologists, Mrs. Kollross and Mrs. Petersen, for turning challenges into breakthroughs and helping everyone in our community communicate with pride!✨🗣️

Good Morning,

Due to the excessive rainfall creating sewer issues, Ridgeview Schools will not be in session today (8/14/26). This will be considered an Emergency Day. All before school activities are cancelled. A decision on after school activities will be made later today.

Thank you and have a great day!

Please be aware - we are currently without power and some communication. We are holding students until the end of the day and plan to dismiss at normal time. We did shelter in our basement temporarily due to the high wind potential. We are returning to classes, as we've received notification from NWS we should be clear. Thank you, Mr Young
