Sage Ridge changed my life. This school motivated me and allowed me to be the first generation in my family to attend college. The small school environment at SRS is something that truly allows you to connect with others and it has been a blessing to have.

"Sage Ridge provided me with a transformative experience, and I remain committed to helping my community in some of the ways that I myself was assisted.
I left Sage Ridge committed to doing my best work at the highest level while ensuring that I do what is right. Integrity is my truth: when I am providing my best work, I am being true to myself.”
