OUR MISSION
 

The Friends of Ridge (FOR) campaign is an HSA fundraiser that funds programs not covered by the Board of Education. These are additional enrichment programs chosen by your childrens’ teachers, funded completely by you, the parents. Other HSA fundraisers cover facilities and technology expenses, while FOR is the sole benefactor for these additional programs that go above and beyond the standard education.
