[quote=Anonymous]My child started at RFC this year, and we are thrilled with it! From what I understand, all of the kids last year tested ahead of their grade level on the Terra Nova test that they administer at the end of each year to ensure that the kids are on track. The 2 teachers (one for lower school and one for upper school) are absolutely amazing - warm, nurturing, dynamic, passionate, and just so skilled at what they do. Definitely contact the Admissions Chair if you are interested in learning more. The link to that website is: http://www.riverfarmcooperative.com/contact/ It is a blend of Waldorf (movement, nature), Montessori (mixed age classes: grades K-2, and grades 3-5 are taught together), and classical (arts & humanities). They use the Singapore math teaching method. In my humble opinion, the founders took the best of those philosophies and curricula and made their vision of an ideal learning environment really come to life. It is a gem, and the kids exude so much joy in their learning experiences there. We feel very fortunate to have found it![/quote]
