During our block schedule, Ms. Ryan’s students took learning outside and put their collaboration skills to the test on Ridgeview’s obstacle course. Their challenge? Safely getting their team across the “raging river” using communication, problem-solving, and teamwork.

A special shoutout to Jaden Beckman, Alex Patterson, and Kaeden Cutler for stepping up as MVPs during the activity, with Alec McNeely lending a helping hand as well. Activities like these help students build leadership, trust, and teamwork skills while having a great time together. We love seeing our Panthers learning beyond the classroom walls! #PanthersRISE

Recently, Mrs. LaPierre’s culinary classes took on sushi-making—and it was a hit! Students had the opportunity to create their own rolls using ingredients like cream cheese, cucumbers, imitation crab, and ahi tuna. They even made their own yum yum sauce to go with it! From learning new techniques to exploring flavors, this hands-on experience was enjoyed by all. We love seeing our students build real-world skills in such a fun and engaging way! #PanthersRISE

At our final chorus concert, a special Ridgeview Chorus tradition was passed on to the next generation. For decades, a “good luck coin” has traveled with chorus students to performances and events, beginning as a tradition at Lakeside Junior High before eventually making its way to Ridgeview. The tradition not only brings good luck to the chorus program but also honors the memory of Logan, a former chorus student whose story continues to inspire those who know it.

Since the end of his freshman year, Connor Murphy has been the keeper of the Ridgeview Good Luck Coin, faithfully bringing it to every chorus concert and event. This week, Connor officially passed the coin to sophomore Ariess McCraw, who will carry the tradition forward over the next two years before passing it on himself one day. We love seeing traditions like this continue to connect generations of chorus students and remind us that being part of Ridgeview Chorus is about much more than music.
