River Valley School
School Notes Overview:
Since 1991 River Valley School has been providing a quality private independent study program for a wide variety of students in grades 7-12. The use of the exclusive "Assignment Tracking System", which gives details of weekly assignments and tests for an entire quarter, keeps everyone - student - parent - teachers - on the same page. In addition, the weekly homework instruction appointments with BOTH parent and student encourage students to do their best and keep parents informed and empowered to follow-up at home. Many of our families tried "free programs" that did not work for their students. This year, despite economic setbacks, 100% of last year's students re-enrolled because they are so pleased with their student's progress at River Valley....
