Rolling Ridge Elementary School

I believe this school is a hidden gem. When I first came to Loudoun, 10 years ago, it was rated a 4 and when I attended my first PTA meeting I asked the principals. "How can this school be rated so low?" The population is transient, but these kids are nurtured so much in this beautiful, caring place. I have to say, parents need to be more pro-active. Teachers cannot do this work alone and a lot of the enrichment activities are all parent-led.

Rolling Ridge is a wonderful place with motivated staff and great kids that are working hard and succeeding! We are so happy to be a part of it!

I've been under impressed with the way the school is ran. We transferred from Fairfax County and I have felt the guilt ever since. The lack of communication between teacher and parent is crazy, you have to beg for it. The previous AP was a nightmare and they have resolved that issue. There is very little for the parents to come and see their children do things, like plays and concerts. No daddy daughter dances. Everything the PTA does is outside of the school. I have fought tirelessly for my child's IEP for the team to constantly look at me for ideas.

Great school. Recently had Principal of the year for Loudoun and now this past year Teacher of the year. Parent volunteers as well as the community organizations are so active.
