The best way to learn about a school is directly from the students. Blue Ridge School features several student profiles on their website. below is what John Sung, from Ulsan South Korea had to say about his school:
Why he is a Blue Ridge Baron: I was looking for a high school, and my guardian told me this was a place that was quiet and peaceful with a great environment so I could concentrate on my school work and have a good time. When I came here, I thought Blue Ridge School was very big and very pretty. The lake and the chapel and the woods around it were so beautiful.
Message to Prospective Students: The most important asset of the School is that you have close teacher and student relationships. You have to get your work done, and the teachers will stay after you to get your work done and prepare you for college. The sports here are competitive; Blue Ridge taught me a lot about sportsmanship and that being a good team member is more important than your individual talents. Everyone here is very accepting. No one judges you based on what you look like. They find out who you are. (John Sung will be attending Syracuse University next year where he plans to study architecture.)
