Great college preparation. Very safe area, and a community that cares. The clubs and activities are diverse enough to accomodate most interests for high schoolers.
11/17/2024
Ridgewood is great school district with a lot of opportunities for sports, clubs and education. Teachers offer plenty of extra help to Sydney's who want to take advantage of it.
10/30/2023
It was pretty good. If you are in higher levels of classes and are enrolled in more honors and AP level classes you will most likely have way better teachers than if you were just in CP or below.
