Facets was named by the 2002 staff, the year of our first graduating class.


In the beginning, Emerald Ridge had no definition, no traditions, and no predictable path. The beginning of an emerald gem starts out the same, untouched, with no definition. We have taken this raw gem and cut facets, we have started the traditions, and we have flashed a glimpse of what Emerald Ridge will become. The facets on an emerald reflect the many different faces inside the walls of ER. With each cut we make to the gem, we are creating a tradition, we are opening the window to new ideas, and we are building a community that will last forever.

Each year, our yearbook records the history that has been created, and each book represents a new facet of Emerald Ridge. Congratulations to the class of 2002, for creating the second facet in our gem.
