It was just my teenage middle school years at this school, while it was not the most flawless environment, it did get the job done.

Rivendell is a great school with a changing curriculum. It centers the students primarily and works to make well-rounded graduates that are prepared for college. It could do better on some policies and it is not very diverse. Most teachers want you to succeed... some others seem like they're purely there for pay.

At times intense, but mostly exceeds because of how integrated it is. Faculty work hard to create connections between courses.

Rivendell has very good teachers who care about the students and work hard to help them succeed. The administration is another story; dysfunctional at best, the administration is grudgingly supported by teachers who pick up the slack and put their best face forward.

Rivendell Academy has an incredible staff and administration and is a great school for a top notch education within a nurturing environment. Every student matters and is encouraged and supported to do their best. Kids can move ahead if they are ready and take classes at Dartmouth (free), or Vermont...
