RHS Swipe Card System

Ridgewood High School made one more step to

making the building and its students more secure.

With the start of the new year RHS implemented a

new swipe card system.

Students have access to all 7 doors with read-

ers Mon - Fri from 6:30am - 3:30pm. On weekends

and holidays, doors are manually unlocked for other

times depending on the event schedule. As in the

past, certain doors will be opened manually for the

public from 2:50pm-10:30pm.

Remember, no one is allowed in the building by law

unless there is a custodian on duty. If a student has a

problem with their swipe card, please see Mr.

Pizzuto.
