I attended the TRA in elementary and middle school. I had a wonderful experience with teachers and my overall education has set me up for success very well in high school and college. Ultimately I left the school because I wanted a larger class size and more social activities but I would strongly recommend the school to many people.

The River Academy's family like atmosphere and the size of our school makes it feel like a community. All the teachers reach out to the students and make the effort to build a relationship with them, so that at anytime we can come to them and ask for their help. Starting at kinder- prep, the teachers instill a passion to love to learn, to always try your hardest, and to have impressive study habits.
