Why Us?

We celebrate childhood and embrace it as the time of life when the most robust learning occurs.

With our focus on Junior Kindergarten through 8th grade, we let kids be kids, without the pressure to grow up too fast. We help them navigate the tricky spots. Kids feel safe to learn here and that gives them the confidence to try new things.

The Riviera Ridge School has limited space in select grades for enrollment for the current school year. To start the inquiry process, please click here.
