Rivermont has potential to be a great school. The lack of administrative support for programs like art, music, and sports hurts enrollment. The complete lack of a library is a huge red flag that has us questioning if our children should still attend this school.

Rivermont has been great with our child. This is his fourth year there and we have had a wonderful experience. It's a family oriented school and the teachers are more than capable of handling anything they need to. They come together with families and make sure it is a family centered environment. My child feels safe and is able to maintain his independence and individuality. We enjoy the small class sizes and the academics are amazing.

I'm a parent of a fifth grader at Rivermont. Our son has certainly thrived since going to Rivermont three years ago. Although our public school system is pretty good, he found himself frequently bored. At Rivermont he is consistently challenged at a variety of subjects. The administration really cares about the students, and they partner with other schools to help support their sports programs. Overall we have been very happy with Rivermont.

Some on the administration team have lost their passion and it shows. Leadership is unprofessional and reactive. Hopeful...

Rivermont Collegiate is very disciplined. Close follow up of the students is a key issue for international students. I am happy that at Rivermont all directors know every student’s weaknesses and strengths and support them accordingly.
