Rivermont Collegiate

Where students develop Intellect, Character, and Creativity

Parent Resources

Parent Involvement

Parents are the first and primary educators of their children. Rivermont Collegiate seeks to work in partnership with parents as their children progress through formal schooling. Studies show that students experience greater academic success and personal satisfaction when their parents are active participants in their education. Reading to your child, showing an interest in schoolwork, fostering good work habits, and demonstrating a commitment to life-long learning show your child that you are committed to and value education. Parents are encouraged to become involved in the life of the School through volunteerism and philanthropy.

Rivermont Collegiate expects its students, faculty, staff, and administrators to follow the rules and regulations of the School both in spirit and in word. The School also expects parents to recognize and respect them as well. Courtesy and civility are a vital to the development and maintenance of a healthy school community. Parents have a contractual relationship with School, but more importantly they set an example to our students. Rivermont therefore places great emphasis on comportment of all the members of the school community, including parents and families.

Parents and independent schools work together to create and sustain effective partnerships. Rivermont endorses the following principles of good practice as promoted by the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS).

  • Parents recognize that effective partnerships are characterized by clearly defined responsibilities, a shared commitment to collaboration, open lines of communication, mutual respect, and a common vision of the goals to be reached.
  • In selecting an independent school, parents seek an optimal match for the needs of the student, their own expectations, and the philosophy and programs of the school.
  • Parents are familiar with and support the school’s policies and procedures.
  • Parents provide a home environment that supports the development of positive learning attitudes and habits.
  • Parents involve themselves in the life of the school.
  • Parents seek and value the school’s perspectives on the students.
  • When concerns arise, parents seek information directly from the school, consulting with those best able to address the concerns.
  • Parents share with the school any religious, cultural, medical, or personal information that the school may need to best serve the student.
