GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I attended Blue Ridge High School during COVID-19, one of the most difficult times we have recently faced as a country. Blue Ridge has grown in education and as a community. Blue Ridge cares about each and every one of its students and administrators are constantly trying new things to better education for students, a better workplace for teachers and bettering current systems.

This school is terrible! For the past three years they have been cutting programs and extracurricular classes. They push to have children on IEP's openly stating the increase in funding they in turn receive for that child. They have had a different academic schedule, number of classes, number of cre...
