Welcome to Gifted at Riverview Elementary! We are very proud of our advanced students in our program and are glad you are here to learn more about it! At Riverview Elementary, students in first through fifth-grade who are identified as gifted are served within a cluster group setting by a gifted certified teacher. Students are also pulled out during a 30-minute segment 4 times per week to work on things such as STEM/robotics, creativity, critical thinking, etc.
Archaeology Unit Fun!
Our students had a great time learning about archaeology! You can see some of their work: Archaeology Pictures

Check out work from our Riverview Eagles at our 1st Summer Enrichment Program!
Some of our fabulous teachers hosted a 2-week Enrichment Camp for our accelerated Riverview students. The students did a variety of activities such as creativity exploration, STEM investigations, writing and publishing storybooks, and learning about a variety of artists. The students showcased all of their work at a Gallery Walk on the last day.. Here's a glimpse at everything they did: Enrichment Camp Letter
