The Ridley School District is excited to welcome students, families, faculty, and staff to the 2026–2027 school year!
As the new school year begins, Superintendent Charles Maiers, the Ridley Board of School Directors, and the entire Ridley School District community look forward to another year of learning, growth, and achievement.
This year, Ridley will continue to be guided by a shared message that has become an important part of our school community: Inspire. Trust. Unite. These three words remain the pillars that shape our relationships, our work, and our commitment to students.
Inspire
We will inspire one another through a continued commitment to excellence, creativity, and lifelong learning. Every classroom, hallway, and daily interaction provides an opportunity to spark curiosity, encourage growth, and help students reach their potential.
Trust
We will trust in the strength of our school community—including our teachers, students, families, and staff. Through collaboration and a belief in one another, we can work together to overcome challenges and continue moving forward.
Unite
We will unite around Ridley School District's core mission: creating a caring environment that gives every student the opportunity to achieve their fullest personal and academic potential and become a productive and responsible citizen.
As we begin the year, the District is grateful for the dedication of our educators and staff, the partnership of our families, and the energy and enthusiasm our students bring to our schools each day. Together, we continue to build a school culture centered on inclusion, resilience, and shared purpose.
We look forward to a successful 2026–2027 school year filled with meaningful progress, new opportunities, and continued growth for every member of the Ridley School District community.
Welcome back, Ridley! Let's make it a great year together!
