About Our School
Ridge Elementary School (RES) serves a diverse population of students. We will continue to focus on maintaining and improving our instructional programs along with our MTSS (Multi-Tier Support System) school-wide initiatives. Our school utilizes relevant instructional technology to provide students with a strong academic and social-emotional culture for learning. In recent years, RES has made progress in closing the achievement gap and utilizing Responsive Classroom and Conscious Discipline practices to support our students. In the upcoming year, we will continue to meet the needs of our students by taking a standards-based approach to education, cultivating positive school culture through a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS), and promoting appropriate academic rigor.
