Parking Lot Safety Reminders

Parents, thank you for helping us keep pickup and drop-off safe!
When exiting the main parking lot, please remember to stay single file in one lane and make a left turn only when leaving.
Passing other cars or forming multiple lanes creates a safety risk for our students and families. A few extra seconds of patience helps everyone get home safely!
Thank you for your cooperation — we appreciate you!

Feedback regarding Counseling Programs

Ridge View Elementary is committed to supporting the whole child — academics, behavior, and social-emotional well-being.
The Utah State Board of Education is asking parents to share feedback on school counseling programs, and your responses help us understand what our students need most and what they already know.
The survey is quick and confidential:
Thank you for your valuable insight!

PTA Reflections Art Contest

Theme: What my culture means to me
All students that submit an entry will be entered into a drawing for a FREE Ninja Kids or Kidstopia pass.

Attendance Reminders

Just a reminder that the First Bell rings at 8:55 am and the Tardy Bell rings at 9:00 am.
We'd love your help getting your student to school on time so they can line up when the Warning Bell rings at 8:55 am.
Please note: Students will now be marked Tardy when entering at 9:00 am.
Thank you so much for helping your student start their day off right! 😊

Excusing Your Student

If your student is going to be absent, there are three ways you can excuse the absence:
  1. Call the office at 801-567-8930 and select 1 for the attendance line. When leaving a message, please speak slowly and clearly, providing your student's name and the date of the absence.
  2. Send an email to ridgeviewelem@jordandistrict.org
  3. Send a ParentSquare message to Larkyn South.
If you need any clarification regarding attendance, please review Ridge View's Code of Conduct

Checking OUT your student

When checking out your student, please remember the following:
  • We will call your student down as soon as you arrive in the front office. This is to optimize instructional time and respect our classroom teachers working so hard to support our students!
  • We will need to verify your ID, so please make sure you have identification with you for verification.
  • If you send an emergency contact to pick up your student, please ensure they are listed on your student’s profile. We will NOT release a student to an emergency contact who is not listed.

School Lunch Payments

We would really like to see our students' lunch accounts stay positive this school year. Here are three ways to do this:
1. Bring Payment to the Office: we accept cash, check or a card.
