Character Education plays a big role in the overall education of our students at Ridgecrest as we strive to cultivate student Leadership, Service, Scholarship, Innovation, and Citizenship. Each month students study a character trait and read our “Character Book of the Month” which reinforces our core values. Students are taught numerous protocols to establish personal goals, monitor their learning, and to foster a growth mindset.

Service learning continues to grow as a major school initiative.This year, we are growing our school’s “Adopt-A-Spot Program” where classes commit to keeping our campus clean and shining! Students also participate in many other school-wide and class service learning opportunities.
