Welcome Back, Blazers!!!


Welcome to what we feel will be another awesome school year at Ridge View High School. Today is the first day of school; and we would like to provide you with some important information to make your first day much easier for you, your RV Blazer, and our RV family as a whole.
  1. All students should be dropped off and picked up in our upper parking lot located at the top of the hill off of Hard Scrabble Road.  The lot entrance, when going up the hill from Food Lion direction, is PAST the marquee sign on the left.  When you turn into the lot, please follow the blue line on the roadway which will guide you to the D-lot drop-off point, just behind the Auditorium.  For dropping off or picking up purposes, please do not use the circle in front of the school's main entrance.
  2. We expect there to be a high number of you who will need to come into the Guidance Department.  So we ask that you also come into the same upper lot mentioned above.  Please park in that lot, enter the building from there, and come down D-Hall to the Guidance Department, which is at the front of the building.  You will find staff members in the hallways available to guide you in the right direction.
  3. All parents and/or guardians are required to sign the Responsible Use Procedures (RUP) which can be found under the email section in Parent Portal.  The RUP may also be signed electronically when you register or update your son's or daughter's information in the new online program called InfoSnap.  If you have any questions regarding your Parent Portal account, please contact Patsy Smith at 803.699.2999 ext. 209.
  4. Tomorrow is a regular start time day.  For those students who have early bird class, it will begin at 7:35 AM.  If students who do not have an early bird class should report to their Advisory classes, which will begin promptly at 8:40 AM.  An email was sent to all students with the name of their Advisory teacher and the location of the Advisory class.  In Advisory, students will receive an updated copy of their schedule.
Again, welcome to a great year at Ridge View!  GO BLAZERS!!!
