It is my pleasure to welcome you to our school website.  I thank you for your visit and hope to provide you with useful information.

Riverside Regional Elementary School is the only English public school with almost 400 students located in Arvida in the Saguenay region. Our school allows to foster a family friendly atmosphere where staff get to know all the children well. Parent participation is welcomed and we offer many opportunities for parents and families to come and engage with the children’s learning. 

Our experienced, highly skilled and committed staff deliver quality education as we provide all students with the opportunity to succeed to their fullest potential through a collective responsibility and high expectations.  Furthermore, any student who graduates from Riverside earns a bilingual High School diploma.

All year long we provide your children with opportunities allowing them to build their self-confidence and to develop a variety of skills and interests.  We help them blossom and grow as individuals, giving them the academic, social, emotional skills and provide them with rich cultural experiences helping them become good community members.

Each classroom is equipped with an interactive white board and students have access to iPads as technology is integrated into the curriculum. A variety of sporting and cultural activities are available for students to participate in during lunchtime. Furthermore, we have a wonderful playground with a play park and a large playing area, soccer fields and basketball nets.   

Enjoy looking through our website and don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or if would like a guided tour.
