I am delighted that you are taking the time to learn more about Riverfield Country Day School. Serving families with children aged two months through 12th grade, we have enjoyed 25 years of growth and progress--while remaining true to our family atmosphere and whole child/student approach to education and learning.

Although we started the school 25 years ago to provide an extraordinary Pre-School experience, we will graduate our 3rd Upper School Senior Class in May 2009, which includes a number of “Lifers” – those who have attended Riverfield since Pre-School or Kindergarten.

The reality is that we have grown our unique program to encompass the entire infant – Upper School experience because our families and students are pleased with the very special Riverfield Experience. They value our small classes and caring faculty and staff. They value the outdoor experience we provide our beautiful 120 acre campus. And they value the exceptional way we facilitate the educational process – building impressively knowledgeable and capable, self-confident and self-aware, interested and interesting students -- to foster a life-long love of learning and discovery.

Whether you have been intrigued by our Reggio Emelia approach to Pre-School; the multi-aged classrooms that begin in Pre-School and continue through Upper School; our innovative and creative staff; our students’ high test scores; our growing (and winning!) athletic program; our innovative art, drama and Riverfield Rocks programs; small student-teacher ratios; or our enthusiastic student and family advocates, we encourage you to learn more about us.

Families turn to Riverfield believing that Riverfield will be a partner with them on the path their children and students travel. They stay at Riverfield knowing that Riverfield takes the time to get to know their students, provides individualized and varied opportunities for growth and success, and enjoys with them the many moments of delight and achievement that result from discovery, learning, development and education.
