Welcome to Riverside School
OUR MISSION
Riverside School has been identified as a School of Distinction in the category of "Highest Overall Performance". This was based on a rating system enacted by the state of Connecticut wherein each school's performance on standardized tests is analyzed and assigned a "school performance index". Our designation indicated that our school performance falls in the top 10% of all elementary schools in Connecticut. This special distinction reflects the hard work of the staff and students. We are very proud of this accomplishment and committed to sustaining it. Furthermore, Riverside School was ranked #4 public elementary school in Connecticut by U.S. News & World Report.
