New Student Registration

.

Welcome to the River Vale Public School District!  Our schools are dedicated to providing each student with a first-class education in a safe and supportive environment. The Board of Education and staff join with both parents and the community-at-large in a commitment to promoting self-discipline, motivation, and academic excellence in all children.

Our district is comprised of three schools: Roberge Elementary (grades Pre-K and K-5), Woodside Elementary (grades K-5) and Holdrum Middle School (grades 6-8)

We value our students' acquisition of knowledge as well as the development of their critical thinking and problem solving skills. Our ultimate goal is to help all children develop into independent, self-sufficient, and productive adults who will succeed and contribute responsibly to the global community.  We are committed to excellence and invite you to become part of our award-winning school district.
