    Welcome to Ridgecrest Elementary School. We are proud of our dynamic and student-centered learning community. Our vision is 100% student success, believing that all students possess gifts and talents. Four themes that encapsulate our educational philosophy are student scholarship, leadership, creativity and service.

    We are proud of and continue to expand the enrichment opportunities at Ridgecrest both inside the classroom and through a multitude of diverse opportunities before, during and after school. Our Student Enrichment Model (SEM) continues to grow and flourish, providing students with opportunities to explore their interests. A major initiative at Ridgecrest is to promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) learning experiences. STEM activities will be integrated into math and science classes and students are welcome to join one of our many STEM-oriented clubs. We also plan to offer students opportunities to participate in numerous other clubs ranging from Chess, Spanish, Art of Science, and Girls on the Run.

    Teaching students to practice our school’s core values, such as respect, responsibility, self-motivation, perseverance, teamwork, kindness and community, will continue to be a key emphasis of our visible and award-winning character education program. Placing a greater emphasis on service learning projects aligned to the curriculum will continue to be emphasized as a major character-based initiative this school year.

    We believe that our parents and friends of Ridgecrest are our partners, playing a pivotal role in the Ridgecrest learning community. Parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in our many enrichment programs. The talents, experiences and expertise of our parents greatly enrich the education of our students. We also welcome our community to participate in the many parent-oriented organizations such as All Pro Dad, IMOM, SAC and PTA that meet monthly.

    For families interested in learning more about Ridgecrest, tour dates are listed on our calendar. Please register for a school tour as we are excited to show you the many wonderful learning experiences at Ridgecrest.
