Ridgewood Christian School has taken the most positive aspects from traditional public schools, as well as home schools, to give students a highly successful, college preparatory experience. Beginning in the seventh grade students are introduced to a university style schedule. Students attend one hour classes every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and one and one-half hour classes on Tuesday, Thursday; just like a college student but with the close supervision from our highly qualified educational staff plus the continued guidance and mentoring from home. There is no better way to prepare for "the real world."
It is the mission of Ridgewood Christian School to glorify God by offering parents a choice of an academic institution that will assist them in giving their children a chance to become Christian leaders in professions that meet their God-given abilities and interests. The ultimate goal is that of producing wholesome, competent, responsible men and women of character who make a positive difference for generations to come.
Ridgewood Christian School is a Certified University-Model School. The National Association of University-Model Schools (NAUMS) exists to love and glorify God, help fulfill the Great Commission, affirm, encourage and equip parents, educate students with excellence, integrate home and school learning experiences and reach out to other communities by overseeing the academic education and related family ministries of every University-Model School (UMS), and by encouraging the implementation and development of other UMS wherever parents and educators demonstrate interest in providing such a ministry in their own communities. NAUMS, Inc. intends to share the vision, values, systems and structure of the UMS with Christian families around the world. Read more about University Model Schools.

As exciting as college prep can be, there is an alarming undercurrent that threatens almost half the population of incoming freshman attrition. How do colleges and universities keep disillusioned students from dropping out? High schools are generally motivated to make sure students go to college. The drive to go to college has little to do with the success rates of students, however. In fact, a mountain of research clearly illustrates that the motivation to excel in college has little to do with the reality of contemporary campus living. The real meat of the drop out problem is the academic preparation, or lack thereof, that students receive prior to arrival on campus. Read more...
At RCS we partner with you, the parent, to successfully prepare each student for their God appointed future. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
