We are reaching the end of the 2023-2024 School Year! Our students are wrapping up the year with the always exciting Sage Sessions, where they have the opportunity to learn from teachers they may not always get to have classes with, and teachers are able to offer courses they have expertise in outside of their usual classes.

We had a lovely time celebrating the Class of 2023 at the annual Head's Reception on May 24! Sage Ridge has a beautiful tradition where families write letters of support to their seniors and vice versa. Seniors also received gifts, college sweatshirts, and enjoyed a delicious dinner with their peers and families.
