Ridgeview Woods class to create wooden Military Service Flags
Ridgeview Schools will be hosting a Veteran’s Day Assembly on Wednesday, November 11th. Our 7th Grade Woods class would be honored to create a Military Service wood flag for any Ridgeview community members who desire to have one created. Service flags are typically displayed by the family members of active service members in the US Military and members of the US Military who died in the line of duty. These flags feature a white background with a red border and one or more stars. Each star represents a military family member; Blue stars are symbolic of family members in active duty, while Gold stars represent family members who died during service. Whether you have a family member that is active, or if you have had family members that are no longer in service or have passed on, we would still like to make you a Service wood flag to display in your home as a token of our gratitude for those who have and are still serving our country. Below is an example picture for reference.
If your family would be interested in having a wood flag created, free of charge, please reach out to Brent Harms bharms@ridgeview19.org for further information. We plan to provide these flags to families during our Veteran’s Day Assembly at school, so please plan to attend if possible. Please share with any Ridgeview community members who may be interested.

Dear Parent or Guardian,
At Ridgeview C.U.S.D. #19, the safety and security of our students and staff is our highest priority.
Each year the district partners with the Colfax Police Department and other local agencies to continually review
and update our emergency response procedures. Ridgeview uses the “I Love You Guys” Standard Response Protocol (SRP), which is endorsed and supported by many school districts and law enforcement agencies across the country. The SRP provides a common, easy-to-understand language for students, staff, and first responders in emergency situations. The SRP focuses on five specific actions: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter. These actions allow everyone in the building to respond quickly, calmly, and appropriately depending on the type of situation.
We are required by state law to conduct at least one law enforcement drill per school year that involves the presence of law enforcement officials. This ensures that our students know their role during a potential threat. During these drills, Ridgeview works in cooperation with the Colfax Police Department to provide a safe, controlled opportunity for students to practice emergency procedures.
Our drill this year is scheduled for Thursday, September 3, 2026, at around 8:30 a.m. All students (Elementary, Junior High, and High School) will practice the Lockdown portion, and we will have discussions about the lockdown and evacuation procedures in a calm and orderly fashion. Police officers and school administrators will walk through the building to ensure that staff and students are implementing the appropriate procedures. Portions of the drill will require students to sit quietly out of sight (away from windows and doors), while other portions will involve discussing evacuation procedures.
We hope that we will never have to use these procedures in a real-life situation, but it is important for all staff and students to understand the steps in place to keep everyone safe at school. Parents and guardians have the opportunity to exempt their child from participating in this drill if they wish. If you would like your child to opt out, please contact your child’s school office by Tuesday, September 1, 2026.
Thank you for your support in helping us provide a safe learning environment for all students.
Sincerely,
Erik Young
Superintendent
