Extracurriculars
The district offers a variety of clubs, activities and sports. Ridley School District uses a Green Raider as their mascot. The Raiders referred to Native Americans from the Lenni Lenape Nation. In the summer of 2020, a movement organized by students at Ridley High School (called Diversify Our Narrative) took action to change the controversial mascot; however, they have yet to yield any results.
Ridley High School is home to the WRSD radio station.
In 1948 Ridley Township High School began borrowing a car from an area dealership for its driving training program, being the first high school in the region of Chester Pike to do this. Ridley Park High School later also started the dealership partner program.[4]
