Ridgefield Schools
More than 5,400 students attend schools within the Ridgefield School District. Consisting of one high school, two middle schools, and six elementary schools, Ridgefield School District provides students with small student/teacher ratios. These ratios, up-to-date educational materials, and new equipment reflect the district’s commitment to providing quality education to all its students. These efforts on behalf of the district have led to community-wide support for student academics, athletes and extracurricular programs.
According to GreatSchools Inc., a not-for-profit education organization, Ridgefield School District students consistently score well above the state average for exam results in all grade levels.
