Happy Thanksgiving!

The faculty and staff at Ridgecroft School hope all of our families and friends have a wonderful Thanksgiving! The Ram Page will not be published next week as we take time to celebrate the holiday.

Thank You, Veterans!
On Friday, November 11, the Lower School held its annual Veterans Day Parade and Assembly. Joined by several current and former members of the military, the students marched through the school and outside to the flagpole. Along the way, they passed out toy soldiers with a reminder to keep our men and women in uniform in our thoughts and prayers. After the Pledge of Allegiance and a rousing rendition of
God Bless America, the fifth grade presented several speeches. The Ridgecroft Band played the National Anthem to close the ceremony.

Set it and Forget it!
Did you know that if every Ridgecroft family donated $25 per month through automatic withdrawal, we would exceed our Annual Fund goal by more than $10,000? By signing up for an automatic, recurring, monthly donation, your gift can provide ongoing, reliable support to Ridgecroft while having a less noticeable impact on your finances. Just set it up and forget it while Ridgecroft reaps the benefits. To set up your Annual Fund automatic draft, please see Joannah Lassiter in the business office.

Donate Stuffed Animals and Books
Ridgecroft's annual Christmas Bazaar will be held Friday, December 9 and we are looking for gently loved stuffed animals and books for the toy room. Please drop off any donations with Mrs. Riddick or in the front office.

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.
