Our approach
Two philosophies. One child.
Most schools choose between structure and creativity. In every River Heights classroom, a Montessori educator and a Reggio-inspired educator work side by side, so children get both.
02 · Reggio-inspired
A hundred languages of learning.
Art, music, drama and building become the ways children explore their ideas. Long projects grow from their own questions and are documented as they unfold.
03 · STEAM
Curiosity, every single day.
Science, technology, engineering, art and math are woven through the day in play, books and conversation, starting with our youngest learners.
Our programs
A room for every stage, from first steps to school readiness.
Nido · Infants and toddlers

As a parent, seeing how happy, comfortable and confident Ray has become is probably the best testimonial I can give. I'm very grateful to everyone at River Heights for giving Ray such a warm and welcoming place to grow.
