Valley Hospital

On September 22, 2010, Federated HSA members met with Valley Representatives to discuss Health and Safety issues.  Read a transcript of the meeting here.

In November 2007, parents in the Travell community were given the opportunity to email the school with questions they had about the Valley Hospital Renewal.  The emails were collected and compiled into a list of 18 questions.  On November 13th, 2007 parents met with Valley Hospital Representatives, who provided answers.  You can read the transcript of the meeting here.

If you have any questions or concerns about the Valley Renewal, please email us.  As soon as we receive an answer we'll post it here.

All the events displayed below are for the entire Ridgewood community.  HSAs are encouraged to pass along the information to their members through their eNews and by distributing any attached fliers.

We are happy to announce a new partner in our fundraising efforts.  Federated Home and School Association has joined TD Bank's* Affinity Program which provides us with an opportunity to earn annual cash donations from TD Bank.  We are thrilled with how easy it is to participate in this program and there is no cost to do so.

Here's how it works:

TD Bank will donate a percentage of the annual balance in every one of our members' accounts.

No withdrawal is made from your account; TD Bank donates its own funds based on your balance.

Checking, savings, money market, CDs and retirement accounts are all included!  Also, there is no limit on the amount of our potential donation!  (All balances are confidential; only TD Bank will have that information.)

Here's how you can help:

If you already have a TD Bank account, just call any office and tell a Customer Service Representative you would like your account linked to our Affinity Membership Program.

That's it...TD Bank will take care of the rest.

* Formerly known as Commerce Bank

In the last two school years, Benjamin Franklin Middle School, George Washington Middle School, Travell, Orchard and Willard Elementary Schools and Ridgewood High School participated in the Rural School Project in Cambodia, raising money to build a school.  Their efforts have succeeded and the children are enjoying their new school located in the Khsach Kandal district of the Kandal province in Cambodia.  It is about 50 kilometers from Phnom Penh and can only be reached by crossing the Mekong River by ferry.  It takes about two hours to reach the school.
