JRDS is an amazing place. Our children have thrived in the supportive and loving environment, while also being challenged to excel academically and socially. The culture of kindness and a strong sense of community has proven to be the best choice for our children.

Both of my children attended James River Day School. They were prepared for high school and beyond because they learned time management, study skills, and the interpersonal skills needed to represent themselves well while at James River. They are both now successful, independent, contributing members of society -- exactly what every parent hopes for.
