As one of the teachers who opened SRHS four years ago and a resident of the community, I have observed how complicated it can be to manage 2500 young adults during a school day. As far as I see, our ability to create a safe leaning environment has improved 10 fold in the past four years. I am proud to be a teacher there.

My son is a junior this year, attending The Ridge, and my other son just graduated. In my opinion, the school is strict, but it's a wonderful school, it's a clean enviorment, the APs are friendly, and helpful, the teachers are nice, the band is good, the theatre department is awesome, the chorus rocks, the other extracurricular programs seem very helpful to the kids education. There are tons of ways for the kids to get help with homework, and understanding concepts that they didnt fully understand in class. The dress code is fair, and its better then uniforms. The cell phone rule is strict, but it's there for a reason. The school provides a lot of chances to show sprit, and support. As much as people say they hate the school, it's better then a lot of the other schools I've seen, and I'm glad my children attended this one.
My daughter is a senior and has had the best experience at the Ridge. Rarely had a teacher that she didn't like, or didn't learn from. The school campus is huge, the five acre concrete courtyard can be chaotic at the change of classes with 2500 student milling around and administration has a very good handle on supervision, discipline. They are always out in the courtyard, visiting the classrooms, and making sure things run smoothly. Great magnet programs, with fabulous teachers.

I'm a senior at Seminole Ridge, and well I choose Early Admission as a away to get out of going there. I agree with he reviews that there is no togetherness. No one cares about what the other kids do in their school. Even when band won States no one cared. People only go to the pep rally's to get out of class. There are some amazing teachers and others who couldn't care. They're are some issues they need to lighten up on i.e dress code, 'the red line' at lunch. Only kids in SGA care about the school. Everyone trashes the lunch room/school/classrooms. I don't know how other schools are but, I hated going everday.
