Head's Welcome
Hello and Welcome to the Sage Ridge Community!
Sage Ridge School has a 25-year legacy of graduating students who embrace rigorous scholarship, respect the dignity of individuals, choose integrity, embody courage, cultivate a compassionate community, and ultimately thrive in our global society.
As Northern Nevada’s only non-sectarian, independent, college-preparatory school, Sage Ridge prepares grade 3-12 students to be curious and confident citizens with exceptional intellect and character. Academic Excellence is the foundation of a Sage Ridge education, as shown by our student-to-faculty ratios, faculty tenure, rigor of core and co-curriculum, AP testing and scores, and college readiness. From there, our extracurriculars, signature programs, and leadership offerings develop our students not just for college, but for life.
The pillars Sage Ridge was founded on in 1998—Scholarship, Respect, Integrity, Courage and Community—continue to ground us today as we set and uphold high standards for all students; teach rigorous subject matters that stand the test of time; provide extensive opportunities to engage in research, problem-solving, writing and speaking; model and help develop student character, including development of empathy, altruism, and an appreciation for the richness of diversity; support and celebrate close and mutually respectful relationships between faculty and staff and the students we serve; and use technology in ways that enhance the student-teacher relationship rather than erode or replace it.
Our Scorpion community is a powerful catalyst for student success and achievement. The warmth, support and involvement from our families, students, faculty, and staff is an incredible Sage Ridge benefit and integral to the achievement of our vision to inspire passion and purpose through the joy of learning.
There are so many exciting opportunities, events and initiatives at Sage Ridge School, and I encourage you to explore and join our incredible learning community. After all, there is no greater gift for a child than an excellent education. The ability to think critically and creatively, combined with a love of lifelong learning and strength of character, enables students’ success no matter their eventual life path.
