The ISEE is a test designed specifically for independent schools to accurately assess the applicant. If you have a child ready to apply to Sage Ridge School and want to learn more about ISEE, please visit the erblearn.org website.
Admissions office on tour – Playing at a Starbuck’s near you
For any of you who may have family or friends interested in learning more about independent schools and Sage Ridge School in particular, I will be available to answer questions at different Starbucks locations in the Reno/Sparks area. I will take this opportunity to meet new families and can be available more frequently than at the coffees we have hosted in the past. An updated schedule of times and locations will posted on our website, or you can check us out on Facebook.com/sageridge.
Wine and cheese introduction to upper school
Sage Ridge School will be hosting a wine and cheese evening for our middle school parents to learn more about the upper school. The evening will include our upper school students and parents, alumni parents and alumni, faculty and college counselor. The admissions office will be sending an invitation to the community as soon as we have our dates confirmed with the alumni parent club. This will be a highly informative evening and we hope to see all our 7th and 8th grade parents in particular.
As you can see, we have made a few changes to the admissions process at Sage Ridge School. Please don’t hesitate to call me should you have any questions.
