| Ridgewood is
proud of its academic achievement, diverse population
and tradition of strong parent support. But, they aren’t
resting on their laurels! In 2006, Ridgewood received
the Spotlight Schools awards honor high poverty, high
performing schools where at least 50% of students are
classified as low-income and at least 60% passed (met or
exceeded standards) the state reading and mathematics
tests. Ridgewood students blew this benchmark out of the
water! In fact, an impressive 80.3% of Ridgewood
students met or exceeded standards in 2006. All
Spotlight Schools made annual yearly progress and
sustained their performance over the past three years.
Certainly, Ridgewood Elementary staff and parents are
dedicated to continuous improvement for the benefit of
children!
