Our Difference

Local Schools, Shared Commitment

Every Rivers Edge Academy school has its own director, teachers, and front door. What they share is what families count on: teachers who know your child, learning through play, a secure school, and practical help for busy weeks.

At Every School

What You Can Count On

Staff Who Know Your Child

The song that settles them, the friend they look for first, the way they like to say goodbye. Our teachers learn it quickly.

Play With a Purpose

A tower of blocks is early math. A made-up story is language and problem-solving. Learning Beyond Paper turns a fun day into a full day of learning.

A School You Can Trust

Controlled entry, daily sign-in and sign-out, and Georgia's required ratios in every classroom.

You Stay in the Know

Photos and updates on your phone, and a teacher at pickup who can tell you what your child loved today.

Built Around Real Schedules

Meals and snacks provided, Drop-In Care when plans change, free Georgia Pre-K and school transportation at participating schools, and four schools so one is close to home.

LICENSED IN GEORGIA

Held to Georgia's Standards

Every Rivers Edge Academy school is licensed by Georgia's Department of Early Care and Learning and inspected regularly for health, safety, ratios, and staff qualifications. Inspection reports are public, and your director is glad to walk you through ours.

Why Our Families Trust Us

"I started at Rivers Edge Academy about four and a half years ago, and since then, this school has truly become so much more than just a place where I work. Both of my daughters, now ages 4 and 1, attend here, so I have had the opportunity to experience the school not only as a teacher, but also as a parent. As a mom, there is no better feeling than knowing that my children are safe, loved, cared for, and genuinely happy to come to school each day. I get to see firsthand how much our teachers care about every child and the special relationships they build with our families. What I love most about Rivers Edge is that we truly are a small family. We support one another, celebrate together, watch our children grow, and create relationships that go far beyond the classroom. I am incredibly grateful to be a part of this school as both a teacher and a parent, and even more grateful that my daughters get to grow up surrounded by people who truly love and care for them."

"We were looking for a VPK center and wondered about the daycare that was so close to us. And with their VPK program both the short and full day, the proximity to home it worked best for us. The staff was great and the facility was very kid friendly. Our daughter’s first day there, when picking her up she cried because she didn’t want to leave. And as a second grader now she still talks about River’s Edge." A very special thank you to Mrs. Jada and Chelsey! ❤️ They are incredibly caring, patient, and loving with my daughter, and you can truly see how much they care about the children. My little one feels comfortable and happy with them, which means everything to us. We are so grateful to have found Lakestone Academy and truly appreciate all the love and attention they give our daughter. I would highly recommend them to any parent looking for a caring and trustworthy daycare! ❤️"
