7th & 8th Grade Students experience many physical and emotional changes that can substantially impact the student's academic growth during the junior high years. Riverside Christian School's faculty and staff work very hard to partner with parents during these all important transitional years as students are prepared for senior high.
Many families have chosen our school because of its moderate size, focus on Christian character training, instrumental music program, visual arts focus, strong parent support and involvement, and the high quality education provided to our students by a highly qualified staff. In addition to weekly chapel, the junior high student participates in a seven period day which includes Bible, math, science, English, social studies, P.E., and an elective.
Mission Statement
We believe that Riverside Christian School's responsibility must begin with a concern for a student's personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is our desire to lead students to both knowledge and the experience of rich plateaus in their Christian faith.
The ultimate goal is the development of students prepared, both academically and spiritually, to serve the Lord Jesus Christ through their character and leadership.
Riverside enjoys vigorous parent and community support. Parents and community members are actively encouraged to volunteer though a myriad of service opportunities. We are proud of our high level of parent participation and support.
