The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

River Valley allows students to understand time management because we are able to work on our own time during the days when we are not on campus.

I love this school because not only does it teach me time management and prepare me for college, but it is also very personal. The teachers are always prepared to help you and if you need extra time on an assignment they are very understanding.
This school is overall great, both my children attended here and have become successful. They both enjoyed attending here and always said they were glad we picked this charter school for them.
