Students explored the basics of computer science, problem-solving, and critical thinking while learning how coding connects to real-world innovation right here in our community. From debugging challenges to hands-on activities, they showed creativity, perseverance, and teamwork every step of the way.
We are so grateful for community partners like John Deere who inspire our students to think big and see what’s possible for their future! 🌟

At Ridgewood, love is in the air,
In helping hands and moments shared.
In laughter ringing down the hall,
And teachers cheering, one and all.
In friendships built on kindness too,
In little things we say and do.
From hearts that learn to minds that grow,
Our school family helps love show.
Today we celebrate the care we give,
The joy we share, the way we live.
Happy Valentine’s Day to our school so dear,
We’re lucky to learn and grow together here!
