Dear Students and Parents;
On behalf of the Headmaster, the Dean of Admissions and the members of the faculty, it is my pleasure to welcome you (or welcome you back) to Ridley College, Lower School. I am excited that you will be joining us this fall. Ridley is a school rich in tradition, strong in reputation and full of diversified opportunities for its students.
New beginnings can be both exciting and a little daunting for students. Rest assured that we all have a few “butterflies in our stomachs” as the start of a new school year approaches whether you are a new student, returning student or member of faculty. Keep in mind that ultimately, you will be the one who determines the strength of your connection and commitment to the Lower School. I encourage you to put forth your best effort from the very start and to make the most of the tremendous opportunity you have before you. I am confident that you will be pleased and surprised by how much you receive in return.
As you prepare for your arrival and the opening of school in September, I am sure that you may have questions covering a wide array of topics. Answers to most of these questions can be found right here on the School Startup page. If further assistance or clarification is required prior to your arrival in September, you are most welcome to contact me at the school or via e-mail (905 684 1889 ext. 2296 or jim_milligan@ridleycollege.com) for additional information.
I look forward to welcoming you for the 2011/12 school year.
Sincerely yours,
James B. Milligan
Assistant Headmaster / Lower School
