At Ridgefield Academy and Landmark Preschool, we recognize the important role that grandparents and special friends play in the lives of our students.

Your love, encouragement, and presence help shape who they are today and who they will become tomorrow.

Thank you for the many ways you enrich our community and our students’ lives.
