Small class sizes. Immersive, hands-on education. An exciting spectrum of programs ranging from aerospace engineering to the arts. And all within a supportive community dedicated to each student's personal success. The environment at Riverside is carefully structured to optimize academic achievement by focusing specifically on how boys learn best in accordance with best practices as described by Dr. Michael Gurian.
The uniquely motivating and rewarding experience of cadet life extends into the classroom, where dedicated faculty focus on excellence, and engage students through dynamic learning opportunities that prepare them for college—and whatever comes next.
