Ridge Academy is a private school in Beverly, Chicago, Illinois.[1][2]
A group of parents established the school, and a group of teachers designed the school, which opened around 2001. Frequently each Ridge class has between 8 and 17 students. Its tuition is about half of the tuition at several other area schools. Despite the lower tuition, many parents who send their kids to Ridge have to make personal sacrifices in their budgeting. As of April 4, 2011, the school was celebrating its 10th anniversary.[2]
