Our school is filled with teachers who believe it’s possible to give kids a love for learning. Allowing a child to learn at an individual pace enhances self-esteem and elevates self-awareness. It develops a confident learner.
As Christians educators, we come along side students to help them also discover God’s purpose for their lives. Our teachers honor the complete child—faith, character and intellect, believing all are essential to living well and succeeding in life by using God-given gifts & talents.
Chapel and Bible classes are foundational at RUCA to cultivating well-rounded, confident learners. The Word of God is taught as daily instruction, engaging the heart and spirit of every child at Riverstone United.

Riverstone Families
Hear what parents have to say about our Private Christian Middle School…
We couldn’t be happier with our daughter Jenna’s experience at Riverstone. She loves going to school and has made some really good friends. She is growing personally and academically. We would highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a change from public school with outstanding academics.
Our family has two children attending RUCA. I cannot explain the overwhelming peace I have as RUCA has come along side our family instilling a biblical worldview and godly values that are woven into educational curriculum…If you are looking for a soul-nurturing place for your family RUCA is the place to be!!!!!
Shopping around for a better alternative to public schools brought us to Riverstone United. The single most important element at Riverstone is God factored into each day at school. Our prayers have been answered as our grandkids thrive in their new school environment. Thanks Riverstone!
