Ross School was founded in 1991 by Courtney and Steven J. Ross. They recognized that preparing students to meet the challenges of of an increasingly connected and rapidly changing world requires innovative models to transform education, and set to work to meet those challenges. Drawing on pedagogical research from leading education experts, the resulting model incorporates a global perspective; integrated, hands-on learning; and active problem solving.
Within five years of its founding, Ross School expanded from its initial cohort of just three students to become a middle school serving dozens of girls in grades 5–8. The school expanded, grade by grade, adding boys to the student body in 1997, thereby creating a coeducational high school, and Ross School's first graduating class earned their diplomas in 2001. In 2006, Ross Lower School opened on the Bridgehampton campus; the Upper School further expanded by welcoming boarding students in 2008. Currently, Ross School serves about 420 students in pre-nursery through grade 12, as well as domestic and international boarding students from more than 20 countries.
