4th Annual BRS Spaghetti Dinner
The Blue Ridge School hosted its fourth annual spaghetti dinner on Saturday November 5th on its campus in St George Virginia. The event has been a fixture on the school's Fall calendar since 2008 and is one of the many ways the institution reaches out to the local area. The dinner, which was located in the Blue Ridge School Cafeteria featured a spread of spaghetti, salad and numerous choices for drinks and deserts.
 The school's students themselves prepared all of the food, served the patrons and cleaned up afterwards and this year, even the entertainment was provided by the school's own boys choir. Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Greene County chapter and will total more than $700.
The Blue Ridge School was founded in 1909 as The Blue Ridge Industrial School whose early mission was to provide a vocational education for a coed student body which otherwise would not have had the opportunity. Today, the school is dedicated to providing a sound college-prep education for capable and willing young men. Blue Ridge is a supportive, structured community where self-esteem is founded upon solid accomplishment in the classroom, on the athletic fields, in the arts and in a host of co-curricular activities.
