The Ridgeway Parent Advisory Committee (“PAC”) is open to all parents of Ridgeway students. We welcome everyone, and promote respectful collaboration. We are all volunteers helping parents participate in the school system and striving to enrich the student experience and their accessibility to opportunities if needed.
Getting involved in PAC is a great way to get to know other parents. We always need volunteers for small tasks or big projects.
