Return to In-Person School Covid Information 

At this time, the school will resume in-person learning with limited distance. Effective, July 29, all students, employees, and visitors will wear a mask or face coverings indoors per CDPH Guidance for the Use of Face Coverings.  The CDPH announced it is recommending universal masking in indoor public settings, regardless of vaccination status. This is in addition to the mandate that masks are required for unvaccinated individuals indoors in schools. Ridgeview has in place other safety measures that will also provide students and staff with a safe learning environment. Please help, by making sure you do a health check before coming to school.
