Eagle Ridge Academy is where future leaders find their footing. We inspire joy in learning, citizenship in action, and virtue in character. Eagle Ridge Academy is the first public school in the southwest Minneapolis suburban area specifically dedicated to offering a demanding college preparatory, classical, liberal arts curriculum. We serve grades kindergarten through 12. The Academy provides a learning opportunity that, up until now, has only been available at select private schools. Our goal is to not only help each student achieve his highest academic potential, but also to develop strong character, with the intent of creating not just smarter students, but better people, prepared to lead abundant and responsible lives as contributing members of our great country.
