“Our family experience of Riveredge Outdoor Learning Elementary School (Sugar Maple Nature School)  is nothing but exceptional! The school community is wonderfully welcoming and has provided a safe and inclusive place for my child to grow and learn.”

“The teaching staff do an excellent job of not only creating a dynamic learning environment, but also one that is supportive and caring. We couldn’t be happier with the education our child is receiving.”

“When people ask me what the school is like I always tell them, it’s a pretty magical place to go to school. Not only is my child receiving a great education, but he’s also getting a bucket full of happy memories.”

“We are new to the school this year and one of my favorite parts has been the welcoming, close-knit community of families and staff with shared interests.  The seasonal community activities are also really unique and special.  My son is already missing school during summer vacation.  As former homeschoolers, I'm very satisfied with the hands-on style of learning and deep dives on important topics.  There is also a lot of time and care spent on social-emotional well-being and meeting children where they're at.”
