The Annual Apex Fun Run Event: September 20th to September 30th, 2016!
Thank you for your support of Ridgeview Elementary and the investments you make in your children’s lives. We are so excited to reintroduce you to this year’s only major fundraiser, the Apex Fun Run!
We had an amazing Apex Fun Run last year! The first 10% was allocated to the teachers to spend in their classrooms. Then, we were able to pay for Water Bottle Refill Stations, Theater Curtains, & Campus Technology. This year we plan to use profits for Technology for Classrooms & Playground Upgrades!
