Box Tops:
Keep scanning your receipts in the Box Top app!
Win a Box Top Party for your class!
In a competition that will run throughout the entire school year, the class that has the most Box Tops scanned at the end of each grading period will get to have a Box Top Party in their classroom! That means FOUR chances to win!
Helping your child's class earn a Box Top Party is simple:
1.) Please download the Box Tops for Education app on your phone or go to BTFE.com.
2.) After your regular in-person or online shopping, scan in your receipt.
3.) At the end, make sure to select your child's classroom teacher so they get credit!
(Please note: *Classes with multiple grade levels within one classroom will be listed under 5th grade. *Mr. Militello's class is listed under Mrs. Laitila.)
That's it! Our school earns actual CASH for every Box Top scanned!

Involvement Opportunities:
The PTA is a great way to get involved in the school and to get to know your child's school community. Looking ahead to next year we are looking for some new faces on the PTA board and are currently looking for someone to take on the treasurer position for next year. Whether you want to get involved in a board position or join a planning committee please let us know at a meeting or send a message to [email protected]
Movie Night - date to be determined:
The PTA is planning a movie night for Ridge families to take place at the school. Classes will vote ahead of time on a movie to be viewed. PTA will provide popcorn and families can bring camping chairs and blankets for a cozy and casual atmosphere. No admission required but donations of canned goods for local food pantries encouraged. More details to come. As always, let us know if you would like to help out with planning this event at [email protected]
