Ridgely Title I Compact 2024-2025

Each Title I school shall develop, with parents, a school-parent compact that outlines how parents, the entire school staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement while building partnerships to help children achieve high standards.

If you have not received and signed a compact here at Ridgely, please contact your child's teacher.
