Back To School

Dear Families:

It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to the 2026-2027 school year at Ridgeview Charter Middle School.  As your principal, I am honored to serve this remarkable school community and its students, parents, teachers, and staff.

At Ridgeview, we are committed to students’ academic success, social-emotional growth, and sense of belonging in our community.

Thomas Garrett, Principal

Click HERE for the WebQuery Fulton County Schools Transportation page. You'll enter your address and information to identify your student's bus number, bus stop location, and pick-up / drop-off times.

Please download the Here Comes the Bus application so that you can track and monitor your child's bus on its route throughout the year.

Student drop off is from 8:30-8:45 a.m. Student pick-up is from 4:05-4:20p.m. 

Carpool is located on the opposite end of the school from the front office, along South Trimble Road. 

At afternoon pick-up please help by following these procedures:

• Students simply look for their own car when it arrives.
• Cars are asked to form a line behind the school toward the access road (w/ speed humps) or along S. Trimble Road as illustrated.

Students are not to be dropped off at the front office unless arriving tardy after 8:45. 

All 6th and 7th grade students must complete this Proof of Residence Document attaching copies of the two required documents, and submit the three documents (cover sheet, two copies of residency documents) to your student's Homeroom Teacher (4th period) by August 12th. 

Click Required Residency Verifications for additional FCS residency information.

If information related to your student has changed such as contact phone numbers or e-mails, emergency contacts, and more please see below to make required updates.

It is critical that we have a current parent e-mail on file for every student.

If you are unable to make changes online, a form will be available in our front office (a parent I.D. is necessary).

Fees are paid online using a credit or debit card. Students will need a PE uniform (can be purchased later after families see schedules). A yearbook is an optional purchase. A locker is NOT an optional purchase. You'll receive an e-mail confirmation of payment(s) for your records.
