Ridgeview Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 24.7% to 34.2% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Sunset Elementary (27.7%) and Sandrock Elementary (27.7%).
