Riverstone International School

"So upset. My now deceased ex wife enrolled my son at this school. I never wanted him there but she felt it was a good idea so we went forward. After she died suddenly during my sons junior year, I wanted to try and keep him there out of respect for her. However, my son was not taking advantage of the extremely expensive opportunity, and it was going to be a hardship financially since my current wife quit her job to be a full time mom for all our kids. So, after much thought, I made the extremely difficult decision to withdraw my son. I emailed Andy, the school director on June 6. His response was he would like to talk about it before we made the decision. He had my phone number, but other than the initial response, I did not hear anything from him for the remainder of the summer. During the summer we received emails about enrollment to which I responded that my son would not be returning. We just this week went to get his transcripts to enroll him in public school. The first day my wife went the staff was pleasant. The second time she went they were terrible to her. That is when I found out that when we put in his application for 2017-2018 school year which is done in march or april of the previous year, there is a section detailing cancellation. Basically, they want me to pay 75% of the fees and tuition even though he won't be attending (because we can't afford it). Ultimately it is my fault that I didn't go over the contract with a fine tooth comb. That being said, what a bunch of crooks. They had all summer to find a student to take his place, and they probably did. I guess my original gut instinct was right. I never should have let his mom enroll him. I would suggest you do the same, unless you ar rich."

"My brother goes to school here and I've been here to look at his art stuff 2 months ago and 2 years ago, On his first day of school when he started 8th grade, I went to his assembly the day before My first day of school and before I started 4th grade."
