About
River Valley School is an independent school offering an exceptional, one-of-a-kind early childhood and elementary school experience from Pre-JK (Age 3) to Grade 6. We are a growing school of approximately 275 students situated on a beautiful riverside campus in the heart of northwest Calgary.
Drawing from the best educational pedagogies, we facilitate experiences that inspire and support academic excellence, exploration, creativity, and student well-being. At River Valley School we value social and character development as much as academic achievement.
The wonder children possess is encouraged, stimulated, and celebrated through our inquiry-based programming where learning is driven by big ideas and big questions; all within a warn, nurturing and innovative environment. Beyond our enriched core subjects, River Valley School also offers a robust offering of specialist programs starting as early as age 3. We spark a love of learning in every child through the discovery of their individual best.
