RIDGWAY HIGH (CONTINUATION)

Ridgway High (Continuation) is a Title I public high school that is part of the Santa Rosa High school district, located in Santa Rosa, CA with about 257 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 19 teachers, Ridgway High (Continuation) has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Ridgway High School, located at 325 Ridgway Avenue in Santa Rosa, California, operates as a continuation high school within the Santa Rosa City Schools district. Serving students who may need a more flexible or personalized approach to learning than what is offered in a traditional comprehensive high school, the institution focuses on helping students recover credits, improve their academic standing, and stay on track toward graduation. Its mission is centered on providing a supportive environment where students can address individual challenges and successfully complete their secondary education.

The school is known for its smaller class sizes and a dedicated staff that emphasizes individualized instruction and student advocacy. By offering a smaller campus setting, Ridgway aims to foster closer relationships between educators and students, which often helps in boosting student engagement and emotional well-being. The program is specifically designed to provide an alternative path for those who thrive in smaller settings or require additional support to overcome academic, social, or personal obstacles on their way to earning a high school diploma.
