Community and Service

It was exactly one year ago almost to the day, that I first visited Riverstone,

Of all the great things about the school, I have often said that the one thing that really stood out at that time was the sense of community.

This was brought home to me this weekend with all of the community and service activities occurring with our students, teachers and parents: The Middle School disco; the Staff Auction Dinner and Rake-Up Boise (ably organized by RIS senior, Lauren Henken).

Community and service are integral pillars of Riverstone and, indeed, the International Baccalaureate Organisation. We believe passionately that the world will be a better place if everyone had a strong sense of community and if everyone recognized the value of service to that community and the world in general.

After all, attending a school like Riverstone is indeed, a privilege and it is right that the gifted should give.

I think therefore IB
