Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year at Ridge We Care! It has been amazing to see how students we had last year have grown and we are also very happy to meet new students to we care this year.
If you need to reach the Ridge We Care Lead, email [email protected] or you can call the Ridge We Care number at 440-974-5263 between 6:45am- 7:30am.
Some Reminders:
When dropping off your child and you walk him/her to the door, you must park your car. If you are just dropping off your child, not walking them, you can just pull up and not have to park.
We Care students are to follow all school rules while at we care. We also require all students to clean up what they were playing with prior to leaving we care.
All We Care students are NOT to play with any toys or games brought from home. If a child does, and the toy or game ends up missing or broken, we care will not be responsible for this.
We Care provides a snack in the afternoon. All snacks are peanut and nut free only. If your child has allergies to milk, eggs or other food items, I sometimes have apples that they can have for a snack, but not often.
I would suggest 2 things.
The first is to look at the We Care section on the district website to see snack options. If your child can eat any of those, send me an email with a list of appropriate snacks so I can keep extras for them.
The second suggestion is that you just send snacks for we care for your child. You can do this daily or send them for the week or longer. Just put the snacks in a bag, label it, and I will guarantee that no one will touch your child's snacks.
Please send in a blue slip for your child's dismissal if it changes from what was indicted for we care attendance when you registered. There is some discrepancy between what you told we care and what was indicated to teachers. Ms. Mack will be in touch to clear up any discrepancies.
