Pedestrian Safety Month


September is Pedestrian Safety Month. The school's entrance is full of posters that students have made to show how they can be safe. We had over 130 participants. As parents we need to set the best examples as we can for our children. Please use designated crosswalks, and teach your students why safety is so important.

Ridgeline Trivia for September

So where do our 1050 students come from?

Think of an answer?
We will see if you are right!


There have also been some questions regarding SunCrest students and their residency status that we wanted to answer.
Utah County SunCrest have always been a part of Alpine School District. The Salt Lake County SunCrest students are granted resident status (as opposed to transfer student status), due to legislation dealing with unique transportation issues that passed in the legislature in January 2008. So, all SunCrest students are in Alpine School District as resident students.

So do you have your answer??...

...Last Chance!!



ANSWER
Traverse Mountain: 453 Students (43%)
Highland: 306 Students (29%)
SunCrest: 291 Students (28%)

If you have a trivia question that you would like answered, e-mail us at ridgelinepta@gmail.com!!!
