Academic Enrichment Program

Riviera’s qualifying top scholars in grades 1 through 5 may apply for enrollment in the Academic Enrichment Program. This unique program is designed to specifically address the needs of certain students who are ready and able to dedicate themselves to an additional and demanding workload. At designated times, these students will attend the Enrichment Program to work on a specialized curriculum incorporating various enrichment activities and accelerated lessons to further develop logical reasoning, cultural literacy, leadership skills, problem solving skills, collaboration skills, cooperative learning, and creative thinking through an interdisciplinary approach.

Some of the activities and projects undertaken are based on grade-appropriate themes such as the Science Fair, stock market, mock trials, Holocaust, Seven Wonders of the World, Amazon rainforest, U.S. symbols and monuments, African safari, the Westward Movement, and more.

 

The most exciting part of Academic Enrichment is that it provides an innovative curriculum where the students enhance and develop their critical thinking abilities in an enjoyable and non-traditional classroom setting."
