About Us
At the Bruno M. Ponterio Ridge Street School, our Bluebirds CHIRP: we are Compassionate, Honest, Independent and Respectful. To emphasize these attributes, we recite the Bluebird Pledge every day: I am ready to respect myself. I am ready to respect others. I am ready to learn. I am ready to be mindful and have a great day because Bluebirds fly high!

Many children at some point in their lives dream of running off to the circus. Fourth graders at BMPRSS actually did! Following a week of training where they were tutored by staff from Circus Unlimited, students showed off what they had learned during a special performance for family and friends on March 21.

During a recent reception held on March 1, in the school building that bears his name, friends, colleagues, mentees and members of the Rye Brook community gathered to remember the late Mr. Ponterio, who passed away one year ago this month. In addition to the many stories that were shared, those in attendance were the first to see and try out a new bench at the school that was placed in Mr. Ponterio’s honor.
