Sand Ridge Charter School began as a "private alternative school" 18 years ago. It first became
a public charter school in 2002. The educational motif is an emphasis of "back-to-basics"
through a solid curriculum of Core-Knowledge, Riggs Institute, and Saxon Mathematics.
Currently, with an enrollment of almost 300 students K-8th our two salient underpinnings for
excellence are a personalized education through maintenance of small classroom sizes and engaged
parental involvement. These foundational pillars have provided a hallway for our students to
consistently walk through in their exemplary academic achievements!
