Ridgefield Alternative High School at 66 Grove and 18-22 Transition Program

Yesterday, Ridgefield residents turned out for a Public Hearing regarding the lease of 66 Grove Street for the Alternative High School and 18-22 Transition Program. First Selectperson Rudy Marconi read many letters submitted about the programs. Graduates of the Transition Program and current Alternative High School students joined the town-wide conversation. Ridgefield residents will vote on the lease on Wednesday, September 25.

Earlier this week, Dr. Susie Da Silva, Superintendent of Schools; Dr. Elizabeth Hannaway, Assistant Superintendent of Special Services; Dr. Anthony Showah, Assistant Director of Special Services; Jessica DiValentino, Transition Program Coordinator; and Kate Collins, Alternative High School Coordinator, joined host Dr. Wes DeSantis in an important edition of the Ridgefield Tiger Talk podcast. They answer the many questions from the community regarding the new proposed location of our Transition program and Alternative High School. Listening to the podcast could be the best way for people to understand the programs and their needs.
