Last week, Ridgeview High School was proudly represented at the FMEA Professional Learning Conference, one of the largest music education events in the nation. Congratulations to Lillian Michel, selected for the All-State Chorus, and Janaya Francis, selected for the All-State Band, an incredible achievement earned through a highly rigorous audition process recognizing Florida’s top student musicians.
We are so proud of Lillian and Janaya, and extend a huge thank you to their directors, Ms. Bice and Mr. Colón, for their exceptional instruction, dedication, and support. Panther Pride was on full display! 🐾🎶 #PanthersRISE

What a special moment for Ridgeview! Two of our alumni, Zoe Whaley and Ta'vario Willis, reunited yesterday at the Penn Relays in Philadelphia and competed in the high jump together for the first time since 2022 at Ridgeview High School. Seeing former Panthers continue to chase greatness while reconnecting on such a big stage brings so much pride to our school community. Once a Panther, always a Panther! #PanthersRISE

By connecting classroom learning to authentic examples and working through challenging problems step by step, students build confidence, critical-thinking skills, and a deeper understanding of geometry concepts. We are proud of the focus and effort taking place in the classroom each day. #PanthersRISE



Our students are always greeted with engaging, creative opportunities thanks to Ms. Pittman's incredible work in the library. From interactive literacy activities to hands-on projects that bring reading and writing to life, she continually creates experiences that invite students to think, create, and connect. This month, students have the opportunity to celebrate National Poetry Month with a fun, artistic Blackout Poetry activity, transforming printed pages into original works of art and expression. Activities like these help students see that literacy can be creative, meaningful, and enjoyable. #PanthersRISE

Our RHS Chorus students had an incredible time at their Chorus Olympics last Friday! The event was filled with laughter, teamwork, friendly competition, and unforgettable memories as students participated in exciting games, challenges, and an entertaining lip-sync battle that showcased plenty of creativity and school spirit. From start to finish, students cheered each other on, worked together, and celebrated what makes our chorus program so special. Events like this showcase that chorus is more than music; it is a family built on connection, encouragement, and shared experiences.
A huge thank you to Ms. Bice and the parents who helped make this event such a success. Your time, energy, and support helped create a day our students will remember for years to come. #PanthersRISE
