Hello Ridgeland High School! -Walker County Schools will add twenty (20) minutes to the school day in an effort to make-up the recent days impacted by inclement weather. “Our main concern was the lost instructional time as we begin final preparations for the CRCT, End of Course Tests (EOCT) and Advanced Placement Exams. A variety of options were considered in an effort to make a decision that was best for our students and teachers.” The change in the school day will begin on Monday, March 3, 2014 and will continue until the end of the school year. “Each school will begin at the normal time with dismissal times being extended by twenty (20) minutes each day during this time period. The additional time will help teachers maximize instruction in an effort to ensure students do not suffer academically as a result of the inclement weather days.” -Students who are participating in the FFA competitions today need to meet in Mr. Daviss room by 2:30. Competitions today include wildlife, poultry judging, woodworking, and discussion meet. -The Walker County Retired Educators Association scholarship is now available in the guidance office for seniors who will major in education. - The Chattanooga State scholarship is now available in guidance.
