River's Edge has been such a blessing. It was hard for me to think about sending my kindergartener to school 5 days a week for 7 or 8 hours a day. When I learned of River's Edge and their unique schedule, I knew it would be the perfect fit. I appreciate that the days on campus are shorter and that my kiddos are home with more family time. I also appreciate that the lessons are planned out for me in detail by our talented teachers, keeping me from having to choose curriculum and plan lessons on my own. My kids still have friends, classmates, and quality, Biblically-based instruction while I get to be a part of their education at home. It really is the best of both worlds!

Here you will find a University model school designed to let Mom/Dad assist in the teaching of theor child. This is a great option for those who want to spend time with their children yet are not ready to take on all of the planning of homeschool. The families and teachers/staff are sweet and have been a blessing.

This is our first year at River's Edge. Every week at some point, I tell my husband, "I love our school". The teachers are so caring and committed to our students and they are learning so much, both academically and spiritually. When a teacher stops class to pray for a student, My heart rests easy knowing my child is being completely cared for. And on home study days, I have thorough lesson plans to follow. Should I have a question, I know their teachers are available to answer them. It really is the best of both worlds.
