I love the blueridge community,everyone is always there for eachother.We recently went through a hardship losing a good friend in our class,it was by far the worst thing i went through during highschool.Through that hard experience it showed me how good our community really is,and how even through the hard times,you still feel supported by those around you.

I love blue ridge. The teachers are great and the students are friendly. I transferred from another school for my senior year because I just didn't feel like I belonged at the other school. I feel accepted here.

During my experience at Blue Ridge I believe we've become a great community. During hard times our Blue Ridge family has learned to come together and take care of one another. Including, students, teachers, and administration. I'd love to see better academics in Greenville County schools in general. While I lived in New Jersey I felt more prepared for college with how difficult there academics were compared to South Carolina.

Both my older kids go to Blue Ridge. They have great grades and are challenged constantly to work hard. I have heard of other children struggling socially and on some classes so it all depends on each kid experience.

Teachers and student body is great but Administration is terrible and corrupt. No fairness when it comes to being a senior and transitioning to post-secondary education.
