The Spring 2010 Ridge View Academy Graduation Ceremony was a momentous occasion, not only for the 65 graduating students looking toward a brighter future, but also for the staff and visitors as they were joined by Governor Bill Ritter in wishing these graduating students well. 

The May 20th Graduation Ceremony began with  visitors, staff and students joining to sing the national Anthem and a speech delivered by the RAM Scholar.  Governor Ritter gave the students an inspiring speech discussing attitude and dreams and summed up his message by stating the students have already demonstrated fortitude by completing the Ridge View Program -- now they must use that same fortitude to succeed in life. The Ridge View students and staff were pleased to have Colorado dignitaries on-hand to celebrate the accomplishments of these students.
