Good afternoon, Rocket families! 

This is Erika Bower, Superintendent of Ridgedale Local Schools, where our mission is to empower students to reach their full potential while focusing on learning, safety, partnerships with our community, and fiscal responsibility. 

We have just a couple of weeks left with many events going on in the buildings! Please remind students to finish strong, and check the Google calendar on the website for all the exciting events! Monday, 2nd and 3rd grade students have their market day, softball plays at home against Waynesfield Goshen for senior night, and we have our regular board meeting. On Tuesday, varsity softball plays at Danville for another tournament game, varsity baseball plays their tournament game at Mechanicsburg, high school track has districts in Westerville, seniors have exams, and we have a board work session. High school track has district track in Westerville on Wednesday as well. There is a preschool and senior clap out on Thursday. Jr. High students also have a trip to Kalahari, and there is a senior recognition for our seniors who attend Tri Rivers. This will be at the Marion Coliseum. On Friday, 3rd graders travel to the zoo, and seniors have graduation practice and awards. High school track has districts on Saturday. Graduation is on Sunday, May 19, at 2pm. 

We encourage you to follow our LiveFeed on our website as well as social media to watch all of the amazing work being done! You can also find events on the Google Calendar on our website.

We are hiring! We have full time teaching positions for an intervention specialist, a foreign language teacher, and a middle school teacher along with an Associate Principal of College and Career Readiness position.
