Ridgeview High School was proud to welcome junior high and high school administrators, along with support facilitators, to observe the outstanding co-teaching model in action in Ms. Michaels and Mr. Gonzalez's classroom. Their partnership reflects what is possible when collaboration, high expectations, and intentional support come together to meet the needs of all learners.
Through purposeful planning, shared instruction, and a strong commitment to student success, they have created an inclusion classroom where every student is challenged, supported, and valued. Their work not only impacts the students they serve each day, but also provides a powerful example for educators across our district.
We are grateful to have educators who continue to lead by example and showcase the excellence happening at Ridgeview every day. #PanthersRISE




Congratulations to Ms. Rich and all of our student artists for showcasing their creativity, skill, and Panther pride! #PanthersRISE

Thank you for helping keep our campus beautiful!
Biology and AICE Environmental Management students in Ms. Andersen's and Ms. Wells's classes had the exciting opportunity to listen to guest speaker and Ridgeview Alum, Nicole Andersen, who discussed what it is like to work in the field of environmental science. She provided insight into how jobs in environmental science can range from hands-on fieldwork to working for corporations to ensure they are following environmental compliance regulations. She went over how she got involved with sustainability during college, studying the increase of microplastics in oysters, and how students can get involved with local sustainability efforts through organizations like GTMNERR.



Tomorrow, Wednesday, April 15th, Clay County District Schools is celebrating Purple Up! Day. We’re wearing purple to show our military-connected students that we see them, we support them, and we’re proud of them.
Whether it’s a purple shirt, a purple ribbon, or even purple socks—let’s show our military families how much Clay County cares!
