Our Approach
Introduction
Rivers Academy is a unique learning environment for students in grades 5-12. We provide a rigorous college prep curriculum in a condensed school week. By engaging students in collaborative learning with small class sizes, our scholars achieve more academically and personally than with traditional approaches.
Our Story
In 2008, the Rivers Academy founder was concerned by a lack of educational options for students pursuing passions at the elite level that conflicted with traditional school schedules. She set out to create a school that could accommodate these students’ demanding schedules without compromising academic excellence.
Mission Statement
Our goal is to provide an environment and program that supports your child in their academic endeavors as they pursue their passions in the arts, athletics, and advanced studies.
Vision Statement
Rivers Academy will continue to create a path for our students to develop into confident, independent thinkers, able to face the future with personal success. Our highest priority is to provide a balance between being a child and excelling in both their academics and their chosen passions. We will encourage our students to become lifelong learners by modeling academic curiosity, respect for peers and accountability to core values.
