Why Riverside

The ultimate goal is the development of students prepared, both academically and spiritually, to serve the Lord Jesus Christ through their character and leadership.

In the Yakima Valley, we take great pride in our culture, our history, our people, and our community. Yet one has only to watch the news or read the paper to know that society has placed a great strain on our families. Divorce, drugs, addiction, stress, financial, and other pressures are taking a heavy toll on our community and on the foundations of the family structure. Christian families are not immune to the erosion of values and standards that undermine our society affecting children, parents, and the community.
 
At Riverside Christian School, we believe we can make a difference as we partner with parents in the educating and training of their children. Riverside is a community where an excellent faculty and staff have committed their lives to educating each young person to reach their greatest potential.
 
With over seventy churches represented in the student body, Riverside is a melting pot of the evangelical Christian community. The entire program including the academic, athletic, and social activities are designed to educate the whole child from a Christian perspective. Strong academics, fine arts, service, athletics and a family environment make Riverside a special place.
 
Riverside has honored hundreds of graduates. Many have come right back to serve in the Yakima Valley.
