Research River Valley Elementary School Public Schools in Boise, Idaho

“My daughter was of the original/first 'graduating' class at RVE, starting K the year they opened. My son is currently a 4th grader there. The most incredible teachers and staff in the world. Refuse to move until my boy is out of grade school. Bravo to you all at RVE.”

“I think that River Valley is an excellent elementary school. I had a kindergartner there last year and I was so impressed with the things they did. I had heard from parents at other schools that they thought Kindergarten was a waste of time because it was too easy but I thought my son's teacher did a good job of challenging them. He had a fifth grade reading buddy that he read to, he was writing in a journal and he was doing first grade math. They also did a lot of science. The overall atmosphere of the school is very positive. I have been very pleased.”

“My grand daughter and grand son went to River Valley for 2 years until they moved to California. I was very involved in their school and went to every field trip they had. The teachers really go above and beyond. They genuinely care about these children. I found that the teachers really showed respect to the children by listening to them and treating each child as an individual. The activities they had during shchool taught the children to have respect for one another and themselves. When my grandchildren moved away, it wasn't just the teachers that were heartbroken, but the office staff as well. I was impressed that the office staff even seemed to know all the kids names and genuinely care about each one of them. My grandson was already way ahead of his 1st grade class when he entered the California school system where they moved to.”
