New! Homeschool Programs
Starting August 19th 2025, River Tech will also offer 1 & 2 Day programs for homeschoolers.
We’re excited to offer a new opportunity for homeschooling families! While River Tech School primarily serves full-time K-12 students, we now welcome homeschoolers to join us for one or two 4-hour days per week (10:30 AM – 2:30 PM). This flexible program allows students to experience the benefits of River Tech’s learning environment while maintaining their homeschool routine.
We are also opening up our field-trips to home schoolers. More info below.
Please note: The 1- and 2-day programs do not include Math or English.
Tuition & Program Details
You can find the annual tuition for each program in the far-right column:
-
1-Day Tech Day – $1,350/year or $120/month (12 payments)
-
1-Day Arts Day – $1,700/year or $150/month (12 payments)
-
2-Day Tech & Arts Program – $2,850/year or $250/month (12 payments)
Each program includes 36 weeks of sessions, running from 10:30 AM – 2:30 PM (four class periods). Please bring a lunch

1-Day Tech Day: Robotics, Coding, 3D Modeling, and Filmmaking
-
1-Day Arts Day: Musical Theater (Frozen), Singing, Acting, and Dancing

The earlier you register, the lower your fee. This registration fee is per household. We encourage early registration to take advantage of the lower fee and secure your spot for next year.
Volunteer Discount for our 1-2 Day Program
Volunteering to Lead Teach a Class
If you have teaching experience and at least a bachelor’s degree, or the equivalent expertise, you can apply to volunteer to teach a subject. We’ll be selecting only a few (2–3) parent volunteers to participate at first. As a volunteer, you won’t be paid a salary—but in gratitude for your time, you’ll receive a tuition discount on your family’s monthly bill, reflecting both your in‐class hours and the time you spend preparing lessons, grading, and supporting students.
The table below shows how it works for full-tie students. Exactly how it will work for homeschoolers is still being worked out, and I will update this page with further details in the near future.
Field Trips
At River Tech we go on regular field-trips. Check it out here.
Field trips will be scheduled outside of regular school hours:
-
After school at 2:30 PM
-
On weekends, typically Saturdays
-
On school holidays, such as Columbus Day or MLK Day
-
During school breaks, such as Winter Break or Spring Break
Field trips will be optional, and you will sign up using a form. With limited seating, spots will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. River Tech students will have priority registration, and if spots remain, registration will be opened to the homeschooling community.
We plan to offer field trips monthly, with more frequent trips during warmer months. Each field trip will have a fee (starting at $20). With this change, the field trips will be open for siblings (and parents) also. In other words, we’ll plan a trip, and then if you want to go, you sign up and come.
