Welcome to RIDGES ELEMENTARY PAC!
Our Mission:
The Ridges PAC is dedicated to helping our school provide outstanding, balanced education to our children. By facilitating communication, promoting volunteer participation and providing fundraising opportunities, we aim to enrich the learning environment of our school with cultural programs, family events and curriculum enhancements.
The mission of Ridges PAC shall be present at all PAC sponsored events.
Please consider joining us for our monthly meetings or sign up to volunteer at one of our events!
* To become an official member of PAC, you need to chair a committee or hold a board position. Our executive board can make exceptions based on recommendations from each chair or committee head, with the collective understanding that "consistent" participation is a key factor in the decision. The best way to begin is to join a meeting and sign up to volunteer at one of our events. Please reach out to RidgesElementaryPAC@gmail.com if you have any questions at all.
WHAT’S HAPPENING?
upcoming meetings
Welcome to Ridge's PAC: Meet & Greet & Treats with Ridge's PAC President: Join us the first Tuesday of every month 6:30pm for a 30-minute premeeting before our official monthly PAC meeting. This special opportunity is open to ALL parents to meet our new PAC President. You can find out about our exciting programs, upcoming events, and how you can get involved. We are eager to hear your fresh ideas as we embark on this school year together. We look forward to welcoming you, sharing some treats, and answering any questions you may have! Don't forget, everyone is welcome, including kids!
Following the Meet & Greet we have our official PAC meetings the first Tuesday of every month at 7pm. Everyone is welcome.
