A day school for students in grades 6 -12 in Miami, Fla. - a private school with a public purpose
Founded in 1903, Ransom Everglades School is a coeducational, college preparatory day school for grades 6 - 12 located on two campuses in Coconut Grove, Florida. Ransom Everglades School produces graduates who "believe that they are in the world not so much for what they can get out of it as for what they can put into it." The mission of Ransom Everglades School is to provide an educational environment in which the pursuit of honor, academic excellence and intellectual growth is complemented by concern for the physical, cultural and character development of each student. The school provides rigorous college preparation that promotes the student's sense of identity, community, personal integrity and values for a productive and satisfying life, and prepares the student to lead and to contribute to society.
Every day is an exploration at Ransom Everglades, where students get comfortable stepping outside of their comfort zones and learn to love the adventures in and out of the classroom. They experience the exhilaration of discovery and make friends for life while accomplishing goals beyond their wildest imagination.
