Some acts are meant for the gym stage… and some are meant for the screen! Our students have been submitting incredible talent show acts by video, making the showcase more accessible for everyone, including performances that can’t be done live in the gym. Click the link to watch the creativity, courage, and pure Ridgeline joy on display.
And don’t miss the live event: we’re cheering on all our live performers tonight, 1/29/2026 at 5:30 PM in the gym! Bring your Ridgeline spirit—this is going to be a night to remember.
Tours offer a view into our Montessori classrooms and a chance to meet some of the educators who guide them. The middle school session brings you into conversation with our team—and with the students and alumni who know the program best.
We look forward to meeting you!
