Bullying Prevention Awareness Month
Choose Kindness
October is National Bullying Prevention Month and Ridgecroft is reminding students that our school is a bully-free zone. In addition to the giant display greeting students in front of the school,  Headmaster Elton Winslow is meeting with each class in the next couple of weeks to discuss bullying and give each student a "Rams Against Bullying" wristband when they sign an anti-bullying pledge. Also, on November 10, Dr. Elizabeth Marsal will give a presentation to middle and upper school students on bullying prevention, cyber bullying, and suicide prevention. Parents are welcome to attend the sessions, which will run from 8:15 AM to 9:55 AM for grades 5-8 and from 1:05 PM to 2:45 PM for grades 9-12.

Easy Ways to Support Ridgecroft
Give with a Smile
Ridgecroft receives a percentage of all purchases made through AmazonSmile. You shop. Amazon gives. What could be simpler? Click the image above to begin shopping.
Dress for Success
When you buy Ridgecroft logo apparel at Lands' End, not only will you display your Ram pride in style,  but Lands' End will also donate a percentage of each sale to Ridgecroft!  Click the image above to enter the Ridgecroft Lands' End store.
Clipping Cash!
Each of those little pink squares may be worth only 10 cents, but they add up quickly. During the 2015-16 school year, Ridgecroft earned more than $1000 from Box Tops for Education! The PTO used that money to provide teachers with classroom equipment like LCD projectors, file cabinets, and much more. So, keep clipping!   
Turn your Groceries into Greenbacks!
You can help Ridgecroft just by doing your usual grocery shopping. Buy Food Lion gift cards from Joannah Lassiter in the business office and Ridgecroft will receive 5% of your total purchase.
