Ridge Hill School

Our daughter is in her second year of Ridge Hill School and she is very happy here. The teachers and staff are top notch, and care a lot about the kids. There is a strong culture of kindness, respect and learning here. We are a happy Ridge Hill family - along with all our great neighbors and their children too. Shhh....don't let too many folks know.

Ridge Hill School has been my daughters home away from home for the past 7 years. Every teacher she has had have been a great influence in her life. I have been blessed for the help I have received from Ridge Hill School in raising my daughter. The school is 40 years past due for some renovations and the students, teachers, parents and the community deserve nothing less. So please, lets bring this school up to date and let our children today and in the future grow in a healthy environment.

Hamden Teacher of the Year is Ridge Hill's Kelly Wade. This school has leadership, a mission and an impressive PTA. My second grader has thrived in this learning culture. She loves her teachers and Principal Butler. Robust public school doing things right.

I'm a parent of a kindergartner at Ridge Hill and we are very pleased with the school. Principal Butler is very responsive and cool-headed. The teachers are very conscientious & CARE deeply about the children. And the students are unfailingly POLITE! I've never had doors held open for me so many times before. We'll be here until 6th grade. Our son has read since he was 3 and they do not shirk from giving him advanced books. We're looking forward to the TAG program come the 4th grade...
