The PTA needs your help! They are actively seeking a parent for two positions (Second-Vice President and Secretary) for the 2019-2020 school year. If you can help support our community by taking on one of these important positions, please contact our PTA President, Simone Samuel, at sgsamuel13@gmail.com.   

Rob Surette, the talented speed painter, came to Ridge Hill School for a presentation this week. Not only did he wow the crowd with his phenomenal ability for artwork, but he also came with a powerful message about being your best self. Rob encouraged every student to be great and bring positivity into our world. Everyone was truly inspired, and we are now proud owners of the Martin Luther King, Jr. painting seen here. 

Our Literacy Specialist, Mrs. Breen, participated in a panel at the Donors Choose Partner Summit earlier this month. Mrs. Breen spoke about the importance of children having access to high-quality, contemporary books that serve as "mirrors" and "windows" to the world around them. She even met Stephen Colbert, and gifted him with a book of beautiful poetry written about immigration by our amazing sixth-grade writers!
