ADMISSIONS

Admissions at River’s Edge Christian Academy isn’t just about filling out forms—it’s about finding the right fit for your family. We are passionate about providing Christ-centered, university-structured education that gives students the best of both worlds: strong academics and intentional family time.

Kelly Whitehead

This is our 12th year at River’s Edge. I’ve had one student graduate through RECA, another is a senior this year, and our 3rd is a Sophomore. From Elementary to High School, this has been a perfect fit for our academic expectations! The wonderful atmosphere and morals coupled with a rigorous curriculum make for a great education.
