Guided by the words of Paul C. Ransom, who established Ransom Everglades in 1903, the school produces graduates who “believe that they are in the world not so much for what they can get out of it as for what they can put into it.” The mission of Ransom Everglades School is to provide an educational environment in which the pursuit of honor, academic excellence, and intellectual growth is complemented by concern for the physical, cultural, and character development of each student. The school provides rigorous college preparation.
