“Since my son has attended Riverside Christian Academy, he has improved in ALL subjects. He has struggled yearly in the public school system. We had been praying about what the best place for him would be, and we have FOUND IT! The individualized curriculum is perfect for him. His grades are great. He has achieved either an A or B Honor Roll each 9 weeks. We are so pleased with Riverside Christian Academy. God has answered our prayers.”

“A great individualized education experience for my son. The staff and educators deeply care for the kids and are well supported and resourced. My son was reading midway through kindergarten and had read 86 books by the end of that school year. He loves to go to school and doesn't complain or fight about going in the morning, which speaks a lot to the positive experience he is having! He is very excited to start another year here!”
