This week’s Foundation Friday showcase is the Ridgewood School. The interview is with Scott Thacker, CEO of Ivory Consulting, Aliya Ranginwala, and Anna Kheim from the Ridgewood School.

Founded in 1919, Ridgewood School provides a challenging academic curriculum in a safe, nurturing environment. Ridgewood students excel in learning, achieve in life, and engage in the global community.

Ridgewood creates its vibrant learning environment through the teamwork of committed students, staff, and parents. Ridgemont’s learning environment:

• Inspires the joy of learning and discovery
• Encourages academic excellence
• Celebrates diversity
• Fosters respect
• Expects integrity
• Embraces responsibility
• Promotes leadership
• Instills citizenship
• Engages the whole child

“When I think of the five most important experiences in my life, attending Ridgewood comes to mind. Learning how to write well, being exposed to two foreign languages at an early age, and interacting closely with many exceptional teachers gave me a strong foundation that still serves me today. I am fortunate that my support of the Thacker Study Room, dedicated to my late brother and alumnus, Todd, keeps me in touch with Ridgewood.” – Scott Thacker, Ridgewood Alumnus​.
