About the Learning Program

Situated on 379 acres of restored prairies, woods, and wetlands at Riveredge Nature Center near Newburg, Wisconsin, the Riveredge School is a tuition-free, public elementary charter school authorized by the Northern Ozaukee School District.

Our school community creates a laboratory for outdoor learning which amplifies the outcomes of public education, serves learners of all abilities and needs, fosters a deep connection to the environment, and prepares students for success in school and life.

Inquiry, nature and community drive our approach to curriculum, which constantly evolves based on the interplay between those pillars.
