A Week of Community Service and Development at Ridge Creek School

This has been a week of community service and development at Ridge Creek School.  Throughout the past week Ridge Creek students have been active “giving back” by volunteering at several charitable organizations in the communities surrounding campus.  In addition, students visited the Carter Center in Atlanta and were inspired by the work of Jimmy and Roselyn Carter in their on-going efforts to spread democracy and provide basic necessities to the less fortunate worldwide.  While the students were busy with their week of altruistic adventure, the academic department has been finalizing preparations for Fall Semester.  Schedules and academic plans have been solidified and new and exciting college-credit courses have been added.  Fall semester will usher in the addition of a math course that will allow students to earn early credits in college freshman algebra.  This class is the first of several to come, and we at RCS are pleased to be able to offer this valuable opportunity to all eligible students.
