This year, the Ridge Hill PTA and their Diversity Committee are working hard to promote equity and inclusivity in our school community. While the PTA is busy planning cultural celebrations for the remained for the school year, they are also donating some great books that promote the values of diversity to our library. These Ramadan books were donated by Mrs. Baker, a member of the PTA Diversity Committee, and were presented to the media center by Mrs. Hamid. Please check the PTA webpage in December to learn more about monthly book displays that will offer students the opportunity to win Scholastic Book Dollars when they review books on display.
