Kindergarten round-up at Rivermont Collegiate

By Tammy Burrell

Put on your boots and come discover a unique style of learning! Rivermont Collegiate will host Kindergarten Round-up Thursday, February 24th from 11:30 -1:00pm. Families are invited to have lunch and conversation with Kindergarten Teacher Cindy Corrigan about what to expect when your student transitions to Kindergarten. This informal setting is the perfect opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the Rivermont philosophy as well as obtain proper immunization and dental forms which are required for every student enrolling in an Iowa Kindergarten program. Interested families may also browse the Rivermont campus (home to the historic Joseph Bettendorf Mansion) with Cindy Murray, Director of Admissions, who will be on hand for individual discussions.

Rivermont Collegiate provides an academically rigorous yet nurturing environment, where students develop skills and attitudes that provide the foundation for future learning. Our gifted faculty provides students with the tools and desire to pursue knowledge independently, take intellectual and artistic risks, and enthusiastically meet the challenges of the 21st century. Rivermont Collegiate is located at 1821 Sunset Drive in Bettendorf, Iowa. This event is free and open to the public. Come explore our approach!

For additional information on Rivermont Collegiate or Thursday's Kindergarten Round-up, contact Cindy Murray at (563) 359-1366 ext. 302 or murray@rvmt.org.
