Ridgefield High School

RHS ATHLETICS PROGRAM
Athletics are an essential part of the total educational program at Ridgefield High School. The RHS athletics philosophy is compatible with the school's academic mission. Student athletes demonstrate that a pursuit of excellence on the playing field, coupled with the pursuit of excellence in the classroom leads to a complete educational experience. The Athletics Department is committed to a well-organized, dynamic interscholastic sports program that strives for achievement and excellence. RHS provides athletic programs that are comprehensive and balanced, offering athletic opportunities for all students.
