Ridgefield Elementary School
This is an amazing elementary school. The teachers and staff are outstanding not a bad one in the bunch. Not only does your child get an amazing education but you become part of the Ridgefield "family" . Throughout the year there are many family events such as the annual movie on the lawn, there are hay rides and admission is free. They have so many wonderful activities, truly involved teachers and staff right down to the lunch ladies. If you have a problem or a question they stop and help. Amazing school, just can't find a better one!
