We are so proud of Selia for representing Ridgeview High School this past weekend in Orlando at the ProStart competition, where she competed in the Decorative Food Centerpiece category. This event required creativity, precision, and composure as students designed and carved intricate edible centerpieces under timed, competitive conditions. Selia’s focus, attention to detail, and artistic skill were on full display, and she represented our culinary program and Panther community with professionalism and pride. Opportunities like this showcase the incredible talent and real-world skills our students are developing, and we are so proud of Selia’s hard work and dedication. #PanthersRISE

Mr. Ley’s IB Digital Society students dove into some big-picture thinking during a collaborative networking project. Teams analyzed a country’s real-world challenge, designed an effective network model, and examined the potential positive and negative externalities of their solutions. Most importantly, students pushed their thinking further by discussing the ethical implications tied to the digital divide and equitable access, showing how technology decisions can shape opportunity, fairness, and society as a whole. #PanthersRISE

Ms. Fortner’s Pre-IB/AICE chemistry students wrapped up their stoichiometry unit with a fun (and tasty!) S’mores Stoichiometry Lab. After weeks of tackling grams, moles, and atom conversions, students put their math skills to work by determining limiting and excess reactants in a real-world scenario, making the perfect s’more! This hands-on lab brought complex calculations to life and was a well-earned treat for powering through a month of chemistry math. Learning is always better when it’s meaningful… and delicious! #PanthersRISE

Choose UV-resistant or outdoor-rated materials (nylon or polyester with UV/weather treatment) for longevity, especially in sun and rain. Always measure the opening first and select a net slightly larger than the opening so you can secure it tightly. Use proper hardware (eye-bolts, carabiners, zip ties, coated cables) to fasten nets so there’s no slack or gaps that children could squeeze through. If the opening is large or high off the ground, consider having facilities or a professional installer handle attachment to ensure structural safety and compliance.

As a Purple Star School, Ridgeview had the opportunity to select a teacher to participate in the Purple Star Teacher Leadership Program, and we are proud to recognize Ms. Weaver for representing our school. Ms. Weaver recently completed the first part of the training and shared that it was one of the most impactful professional learning experiences of her career.

The program brings together educators, veterans, and ROTC instructors from across Florida and focuses on mentoring, coaching, and supporting teachers transitioning into the profession, especially those with military backgrounds. Clay County was well represented, and the collaboration and shared commitment to serving military families made this experience both meaningful and inspiring.

We are grateful for Ms. Weaver’s leadership and dedication as we continue to strengthen our support for military-connected students and families at Ridgeview. #PanthersRISE

Students in Mr. Smith’s AICE History class engaged in a rigorous DBQ lesson analyzing primary source documents related to the Anschluss. Working collaboratively, students evaluated sources' perspectives and reliability, discussed whether the evidence supported or challenged the prompt, and built on one another’s thinking to refine their thesis statements. Through purposeful academic discourse, students questioned interpretations, strengthened arguments, and demonstrated their ability to defend claims with evidence, key skills for success in AICE History. This lesson highlighted strong student ownership of learning and the high level of historical reasoning our students are developing every day at Ridgeview. #PanthersRISE
