​​​​​River Stone Academy is an alternative to a private school.   We provide prioritizes personalized instruction, real-world skill development, and meaningful relationships within a supportive academy environment.

​

At River Stone Academy we teach children to connect and apply education to real life. We strive to provide the skills and resources students need to develop into strong learners, able thinkers, and contributing members of their community and world.

​

We use the overall expectations outlined in the Ontario curriculum as a benchmark for the skill level the children can reach. However, we take a much more organic approach to meeting the educational standards by teaching through hands-on activities. As students learn to demonstrate empathy towards themselves, each other and the broader community, they have the opportunity to become compassionate individuals. At River Stone Academy they are supported to grow into our world’s much-needed, much in demand, creators, problem solvers, innovators and leaders. We will fuel their love of learning and help them be the best they can be! Grade levels may be used as a reference when discussing student progress, although student achievement is not evaluated through the use of grades and levels, but rather on student growth, which will be documented in each child's learning portfolio. Parents are active participants in their children’s learning and development, resulting in a true partnership between our program and families.
