the staff of the Ridgewood blog
Ridgewood NJ, Due to the inclement weather, all Ridgewood Public Schools will be closed on Thursday, December 17. No virtual classes will be held. Due to potentially hazardous conditions related to the aftermath of the storm, Friday, December 18 will be a full day of remote instruction. Your child’s principal will send building-specific schedules. All afterschool activities are canceled. Thank you and please stay safe and warm.
Alright. Enough of this nonsense. Let the kids come back to school and run it and let the old fuddy duddy teachers and administrators stay home. The teachers the students and parents believe are good teachers with actual talent and affection for theit students will be allowed to teach remotely. The custodial staff can run itself and will probably be relieved that things are getting back to normal.
Remember there is no longer any actual excellence in Ridgewood schools… just a TRADITION of excellence.
… oh we also have some nice trees.
That’s about it now-a-days.
Can you imagine the tax rate on the Board of Education in a few more years. For all the new residence coming from New York City it’s cheap. For the rest of us we have to move.

PattyR : Parents not being honest about their Children? I find that hard to believe? Not in Richwood These over privileged kids now a days don’t know what they are in for in the real world, Their Parents protect the Sh*t out of them. I remember back in the day, if a kid got in trouble the parents would side with the authority figure, as a learning experience, now a days, it’s what did YOU do to MY KID !! And people wonder why Teachers and coaches don’t want to do it anymore. The Parents are Brutal
