About Blue Ridge Elementary
Blue Ridge Elementary School

Blue Ridge Elementary opened its doors in the fall of 1969 when Mr. Mercer was the Superintendent of Schools. Mr. LaRay Ledger was the first principal. It was the first open concept school in Fort Bend Independent School District. After Many years as an open concept school, walls and doors were added to make self-contained classrooms. A gym and an extended day unit were built onto the school along with a wing that houses nine classrooms.

Mission Statement
