The RES PTA Board of Directors is seeking
new members for next year!
Serving on the PTA Board might sound daunting, but it is actually quite rewarding. Not only do you make a direct impact on all students and families at Ridgebury, but you get an inside look at how the school and Ridgefield school district operates. It is also an excellent opportunity to get to know parents outside of your own child's class.
Please take a look at the positions listed below, and if you are interested or know someone else who might be interested, reach out to a member of the Nominating Committee (see our contact info below). We are available to answer any questions you might have. We would love to hear from interested parties by April 4th.
