We want to give a huge shout out and thank you to Alex Curry, former Ridgewood student and Boy Scout, who has been working on his Eagle Scout project at Ridgewood. Alex gathered volunteers to stencil & paint the blacktop area of the school over the weekend. The kids are loving it! Alex's second phase of the project will be building and adding a Gaga Ball Pit for our students to use. #EMSD37Pride
