Others may have done so but are older than Ruby by two years, so she would not really have known them (sophamores and seniors don't mix much). I also think that Beacon is like a major college, taking the best graduating students from the smaller combat schools all over the planet.

For what it's worth, I think that Weiss was probably home-schooled by private tutors, Blake probably has a fake GED (supplied by the government when she abandoned Adam and The White Fang) and Yang (as already stated) was two ahead of Ruby at Signal.
