RIVERSIDE ACADEMY

Riverside Academy is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Riverside Community School Inc. dba Riverside Academy school district, located in Cincinnati, OH with about 283 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 17 teachers, Riverside Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Riverside Academy, located on River Road in Cincinnati, Ohio, is a specialized educational institution focused on providing a structured learning environment for students who may benefit from an alternative approach to traditional schooling. The school is part of the Accel Schools network, which emphasizes data-driven instruction and a curriculum designed to meet state academic standards while addressing the individual social and emotional needs of its student body.

By maintaining a smaller, community-focused setting, Riverside Academy aims to foster a supportive atmosphere where educators can provide more personalized attention. The school prioritizes character development alongside core academic subjects like math, reading, and science, striving to prepare students for future success in both their educational and personal lives. Through its partnership with families and the local community, the academy seeks to bridge gaps in learning and provide a stable foundation for students in the Cincinnati area.
