Our Mission
What We Believe:
Educators at The River School believe that all children have vast capacities for learning that flourish when provided with nurturing opportunities to engage in their natural curiosity. We strive to educate the whole child by providing an inclusive environment where students can grow intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically to be independent thinkers and feel safe taking intellectual risks. Our mission as a school is to inspire a love of learning in our students, not just about books and numbers, but also about the world around them. We inspire an appreciation of responsible citizenship and to understand and value the social fabric of humanity.
