A New Look

At the end of last year we started using Smore for our Weekly Updates. We are excited to have it back and start using it to provide a better source of information for our families. We will continue to make improvements and move to a monthly newsletter.

A Note From Admin

Each month, one of our administrators will have information in this section. We have three wonderful administrators, our principal, Mrs. Rapaport, our assistant principal, Mr. Hesselberg, and our dean of students, Mrs. Spencer.

Important Dates & Events Important Dates & Events

In this section you will find important dates on events happening at Ridgeview. There will also be information about those dates. The title is a link to the district calendar. Make sure to click on the title to check out the calendar as it has all of the district dates for early release days, the breaks when the district is closed, when the quarters end, etc…


The Fall Fiesta BookFair is here and the fun starts on Monday. Mrs. Chaffin always does an amazing job with our book fair to make sure all of our huskies have fun books and cute little items to purchase. The hours of operation next are as follows:


Monday - Wednesday (Oct 6 - 8) 8:00 am - 4:30 pm

Thursday (Oct 7) 8:00 am - 7:00 pm

Friday (Oct 8) 8:00 am - 4:00 pm


Parents are welcome to come in as well, please make sure you bring your photo ID to get a visitor badge.


Parent/Teacher Conferences are next week. Our huskies have been doing amazing work and we are excited to share that with you. You have received an email from the teacher/s with a sign up genius link. If you have not heard from the teacher yet, please reach out to him or her directly.


Next Friday, October 10th, is an EARLY RELEASE day. Students will be released at 12:30 pm. Sack lunches will be provided for students that want a school lunch, the buses will run their normal route at that time and Fall Break begins.


Fall Break dates are Monday, October 13th through Friday, October 24th. Students will return to school on Monday, October 27th. We hope all of our huskies and families have a great break.

This & That

This section will have information that really just doesn't have another spot. This week we want to let you know that the Lost & Found is overflowing and the items need to find their way back to their owners. As you come in for parent teacher conferences next week, the items will be in the front, across from the gym. Please take a look through with your student/s to look for those items. Anything not claimed by Monday, October 13th will be donated. With this in mind, there were a few, very stinky lunch boxes that were thrown away a few weeks ago.


Report Cards will be posted to the parent portal next Monday, October 6th.

PTA Info

We have a great PTA! Their information will be here and they always have something fun going on.


Next week on Thursday, October 9th, we will be hosting a potato bar for our staff during the evening parent/teacher conferences. We are looking for your support to help feed the teachers. Use the PTA link to sign up to provide and item or two for the potato bar.


Next Wednesday, October 8th is the next Dine Out. That will be held at Red Robin and is an all day event. Make sure to mention you are with Ridgeview Elementary School.


The Halloween Grams are due next Friday, October 10th by dismissal which is at 12:30 pm. Get those turned in early.


Don't forget about the Fall Festival!! We are partnering with Skyview Middle School again this year. Are you interested in having a car/van/truck in the Trunk or Treat? Use the PTA Link to sign up for that as well.
