At Riverside Prep, students don’t simply come to school. They become part of a complete, lived experience – full of adventure, excitement, camaraderie, tradition, and self-discovery. Here, every day is a new opportunity to grow, learn, and build. And the rewards are as great as the challenge.

The highly motivating and rewarding experience of cadet life extends into our rigorous curriculum that maximizes academic achievement, because we focus on how boys learn best. Though the challenge may seem daunting, our students learn to exceed their expectations as our dedicated teachers encourage them along the way. This way, boys who leave Riverside aren’t just prepped for college or their next steps – they’re prepped for life.

From the moment the sun rises over the stunning mountains of northeastern Georgia, to the minute it sets behind them, Riverside cadets are active. Each boy can expect to engage in meaningful and thought-provoking classes, participate in a variety of extracurricular activities, and experience the profound impacts of mentorship on any given day.

Our cadets have the freedom to make choices that develop their leadership skills and hone new or lifelong skills. Whether they’re more in tune with their musical side, have dreams of joining our Nationally-ranked Raiders team, or want to take science to new heights through our Aviation program, lessons outside the classroom are just as crucial as life in it.

Riverside’s individualized attention, immersive hands-on courses, and supportive community work hand-in-hand to provide every student with a rewarding and motivating experience at every stage of their journey. 

Middle School | Grades 6-8

In our middle school, lessons are geared towards focused, experiential learning uniquely crafted for young men. Our curriculum is designed to prepare students for the rigor of Riverside’s college prep program as well as the fundamentals of military-style leadership.

High School | Grades 9 to 12

At the high school level, cadets have the opportunity to push themselves beyond their own expectations in a variety of AP courses, dual enrollment opportunities, and through college counseling sessions – ensuring that each student has the ability to thrive during their time at Riverside.

The best way to get to know Riverside is by attending an admissions event. We have many options for you to experience campus, like our Eagle For A Day, and Open Houses. If you’re unable to make it to an event, we also offer campus tours.

In addition to seeing our beautiful campus, meeting cadets, current parents, and your son’s future mentors, attending an Open House or Eagle For A Day will waive your $100 application fee.
