ABOUT PARK RIDGE CHRISTIAN
At Park Ridge, we are blessed with a team of dedicated teachers who have committed their lives to serving the Lord and supporting families in the training and teaching of their children. With most of our staff having served at Park Ridge for 15 to 20 years, our school is rich in both experience and stability. Every one of our teachers holds a degree in their field of study and receives annual training through ABEKA seminars to stay sharp and effective in the classroom. Collectively, our faculty brings over 200 years of teaching experience—but more than credentials or longevity, what truly sets them apart is their deep love for God, for children, for teaching, and for the families they serve each day.

TEACHER SPOTLIGHT
Meet Mrs. Stephanie Ritchie
3rd Grade Teacher • 30 Years in Education • 24 Years at Park Ridge
A Classroom Built on Faith, Responsibility & a Love of Learning
For 24 years, Mrs. Stephanie Ritchie has been part of the Park Ridge family. Now in her 30th year of teaching, she continues to help third-grade students grow not only academically, but also into independent learners who take responsibility for their own learning.
For Mrs. Ritchie, some of the most rewarding moments come when a difficult concept finally clicks, a student begins using the tools they have been taught independently, or a child grows deeper in their relationship with Jesus Christ.

At Park Ridge Christian School, we believe the Holy Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God and the foundation for faith, truth, teaching, learning, and Christian living.
We believe in one true and living God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, was bodily resurrected, ascended into heaven, and offers salvation by grace through faith in Him alone.
We believe every person is intentionally created in the image of God with inherent dignity, worth, and value. We believe God established His design for humanity, marriage, and family, and that His Word is the final authority for truth, morality, faith, and conduct.
We believe Christian education should be rooted in biblical truth, helping students grow spiritually, academically, physically, and socially so they are prepared to love God, serve others, and glorify Him in every area of life.
PURPOSE
At Park Ridge Christian School, our purpose is to provide a Christ-centered learning environment where students can grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ while discovering and developing the unique gifts and abilities God has given them.
We encourage students to become confident in who God created them to be, to value the individuality of others, and to develop Christlike character that guides the way they learn, grow, and live.
