Early Dismissal Reminder
To help ensure a smooth early dismissal process, please allow adequate time when picking up your student. Depending on your student's location in the building, it can take up to 15 minutes for them to report to the Front Office after they are called. This is especially true if they are in PE classes, on the athletic fields, or at lunch.
If you know in advance that your student will need to be dismissed early, please email MRHSabsence@hcpss.org. When possible, we can provide your student with a pass ahead of time so they can report to the Front Office at the appropriate time, helping to minimize delays.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

MRHS Boosters News:
It's Not Too Late to Join Boosters!
Through fundraising, memberships, sponsorships, and volunteer efforts, the MRHS Boosters Club helps fund athletics, clubs, academic teams, performing arts, student leadership programs, school-wide events, scholarships, and special initiatives that benefit students across the entire school. Last year alone, Boosters funding supported athletic equipment and facilities, theater and music programs, academic competitions, student government, scholarships, senior celebrations, hospitality events, and numerous student activities. This year's budget includes more than $150,000 in planned support for the MRHS community.
One of our goals this year is to expand opportunities for student involvement and strengthen partnerships across the school community. We want students, families, staff, coaches, advisors, and community members working together to create meaningful experiences and lasting traditions. While there are many ways to show your support for Boosters, becoming a member is the most important way to show your support and give back to the Ridge community. Membership represents the largest source of Boosters income.
By joining early each fall, you help us plan our budget for the year so we can fully fund requests from athletic teams, clubs and more. Whether your child participates in a fall, winter or spring sport, Music, Theater, or a club, early fall is the time to join Boosters to show your support and help us meet our goals!
Show your support by becoming a Boosters member today: https://www.mrhsboosters.com/membership. Join by September 18 and be entered into a drawing for an MRHS Blanket!
Volunteer for Concessions at Ridge Home Games
Fall sports have started and the home games are picking up. We need volunteers to help us keep the concession stand open to serve all those Mustang fans and visitors! No volunteers means no concessions.
Anyone in the community is welcome to volunteer for concessions as often as they’d like—no experience needed. It’s a great way to meet other MRHS parents as well.
