Ridge senior Jaidyn Riley, who will be perusing a degree and career in the performing arts post-graduation, had these powerful words about her experience with Ridge Drama Club during her time as a student:
“I am so excited to announce that I will be attending University of North Carolina School of The Arts this fall in a BFA Drama Major! Truly, the Performing arts has always been something that I’ve been able to call home. When I’m on a stage I just feel a sense of warmth and accomplishment that has fueled me to pursue greater things in the field of study. Ridge High School Drama Club has given me the opportunities of a lifetime. From holding the honor of receiving a Rising Star Award, being here through 2 State titles for our program (Hopefully a third this year!) , and playing my Dream Role, Cinderella, I couldn’t be more grateful to my administrators and company members who have helped me along the way. I hope the future generations of Drama Club know that it’s truly the greatest club you can find! “
