Ridgewood Preparatory School Reviews

 
My child attended Ridgewood from 7th grade through her senior year and she absolutely loved it. It's a very safe school and the teachers are great.

I highly recommend Ridgewood. My 2 sons and niece graduated from Ridgewood over the last 5 years and had nothing but wonderful experiences with the school, teachers and the headmaster (who is truly an unsung hero). Academics are second to none - all 3 are soaring through college, especially in the first 2 years. They tell me it's like a review because they were so well prepared by Ridgewood. If you're looking for the right school, remember, colleges won't and don't just accept anyone; they're competitive. That's where school choice matters and Ridgewood's students go to the best, top colleges across the nation. Ridgewood really has the whole environment - as they always told me, their motto (so true) - students get the 'total education' at Ridgewood. I miss it but see the results in my kids every day!

Great school for a student who wants to be challenged. This school is not for everyone. Send your child there if you want to get a great education compared to any public school in Jefferson Parish. I don't know how it compares to Newman or Country Day but Ridgewood is not a big money Yuppy school. I am amazed when I hear a parent raving about a certain school. Usually they are only raving because they are comparing their school to schools in Louisiana. My children have attended public schools on the North Shore and Jefferson Parish. I know not everyone can afford it but look into a good private school.

Ridgewood is a great school with a few flaws. The main building is not sanitary. (overall uncleanliness) If this school would spend some money on upgrades, it would truly be the perfect school.

We have two children at Ridgewood. One is a senior. Both of our children have been at Ridgewood for 10 years. We have nothing but wonderful experiences with the school. The teachers are first class and are highly credentialed. The administration has always responded to any concern or request we have had -- and they have done so with great speed and concern. The academics have been second to none. Our children are known by most of the teachers because of the size of the student body. We looked at many schools before choosing Ridgewood and have no regrets. I am a professor and deal with education matters on a regular basis. Even my overly critical eye gives Ridgewood a superior rating. Also, the fact that the school is accredited by SACS is a real plus.

My son had a terrible experience at Ridgewood, and I wish we had never set foot in the door. My son was harrased all year by one child and the teachers and administration did nothing to stop it, but if someone accused my son of doing something, even if he had witnesses to prove otherwise, he was automatically suspended. My son also had his wallet stolen twice in the short time he was there. The principal just said, 'too bad', and did nothing to find the thief. I would not recommend this school to anyone, even if it were the last private school on earth.

This school is great. I personnally know the pricipal. He has a great sense of humor. The teachers are very friendly. my sisters and I went to Ridgewood for four years before we moved. This is the best you can get.

Both of my daughters have attended this school. One has graduated after being there for 11 years, and the other is graduating this year after attending the school for 13 years beginning in kindergarten. I have found that the school is a great place to enroll your child. The teachers are very friendly and are there to help your child everystep of their way through lower, middle, and upper school. I can not say enough good things about this school. If you are looking for an affordable private school to enroll your child in please consider Ridgewood Prep. It will be the best decision you can make.

Our son is attending Ridgewood for his 8th year, beginning with PreK. He is now in the 6th grade, and we have been extremely pleased with his overall experience there. The teachers, as well as the administration,are always available and willing to help in any situation. The teachers seem to be qualified in their respective fields, and we have been very pleased with his achievements. We also have been pleased with the way they handle children who have discipline problems. They do not tolerate disruptions in or out of the classroom. We feel very fortunate to have a safe environment for our son.

I have two children at Ridgewood and have found it to be a very good school. The teachers are very accessible and the administration is always available. This is a private school for middle-class families that want quality education for their children. Because it is a small school, the teachers seem to know all of the children--even those not in their classes. I have found most of the teachers to be extremely qualified and dedicated to the success of the children. They are available after school every day--some even provide the students with their home phone numbers for homework assistance! Our family is very pleased with Ridegewood Prep.

My child had an awful experience at this school. The teachers are inexperienced and the principal will do nothing to help you. If they encounter any problems with your child, they will make your child sit out of school until thay can schedule a conference with the parents. That doesn't sound too bad, except that it took them a week to do this. And, it was the first week of school. Being a teacher myself, I am appalled. I quickly took my child out and enrolled him in another school where he is doing great. Not one problem or complaint.
