When we first toured Riviera Ridge we thought that this is the sort of education that every child should have. Over the last four years, we’ve had the privilege of seeing this remarkable institution shape our three young boys. What we did not anticipate was the depth of community and enriching support that both our boys and our family would experience. We are deeply grateful for this school and look forward to the years ahead. ~Maribeth Claassen (Current Parent)
