Cynthia Martinez: I think Blue Ridge is a wonderful school. The teachers and staff have done a great job. My children love the school so much ,that I drive them to school every day. (We live out of zone.) I spend most of my time there, when I am not working. I am just sad to know that Dr. Jones is leaving us . But I know Dr. Goode will do a amazing job with our school.
