"Your time here will be uniquely yours. No two journeys at Ransom Everglades look the same, and that’s the best part. Be open to the unexpected, say yes to things that scare you a little, and trust that every experience — even the ones you didn’t plan for — will shape you."
Ransom Everglades students are engaged in and outside of the classroom. They think deeply, and they are doers. They engage in meaningful discussions. They stretch themselves in sports, music, art and drama. They try new things. Every student learns to sail and paddle a canoe. Learn more by watching these videos.
