I'm a running start student who transferred here between sophomore and junior year. It's hard to make friends, so I don't recommend doing running start your first year at this school. Teachers are nice and understanding and it's a really good school overall.

It's boring, there's nothing to do there. It's full of people who are fine, but not really the greatest group to hang out with during the School day. It has great teachers, but nothing gets done about people who don't get their work done or just mess around.
1/10/2023
Great education opportunities and options for electives but very bubbled and lacking diversity. There's a lot of pressure on grades and GPA. It's a little competitive but I enjoy it overall.

I graduated from Ridgefield High School around 7 years ago and the experience that had during my time there was wonderful. The faculty and staff members were such an important part of my experience there as they were so helpful and pushed me to become a better, smarter person.

Over 12 years ago we moved to Ridgefield because of the reputation of the schools. Our three kids attended elementary, middle and some high school here. We moved recently to another part of the country and have discoverers that the education in ridgefield schools are lacking in every subject but esp...
