Profile
RiverTree School offers a distinctly Christ-centered education rooted in the teachings of Charlotte Mason—making it the only K-12 school of its kind in Minnesota. Serving 145 students with an intimate 7:1 student–teacher ratio, RiverTree integrates faith into every part of the school day, forming the foundation of its pedagogy. Students are encouraged to cultivate wisdom, curiosity, and character through a rich curriculum that treats every child as capable and full of potential.
As a member of Ambleside Schools International—and one of its training centers—RiverTree is recognized worldwide as a model for Charlotte Mason educators. Families value the school’s nurturing environment, freedom from performance-driven pressure, and commitment to meaningful learning through literature, nature study, the arts, and thoughtful discussion.
Beyond the classroom, students participate in middle and high school athletics and beloved traditions like the annual Christmastime Festival and end-of-year Shakespeare festival. Accredited by Ambleside Schools International, Accreditation International, and the National Council for Private School Accreditation, RiverTree invites families to visit and experience its joyful, Christ-centered community firsthand.
