Welcome to the Riley School!

We’re excited that you are considering the Riley School for your child’s education. Whether you are just beginning to explore progressive education, or you’ve already narrowed down your options, we are here to help.

We accept applications from prospective students year-round and may have opportunities for mid-year enrollments.

Our admission process endeavors to ensure that you and your child understand the Riley program, and that it’s a community where you strongly believe your family will thrive. We have a three-step process:

  • Reach out to the school with your initial questions by either calling 207.596.6405 or filling out the interest form below.

  • From there your family will be invited to tour the campus and complete a parent interview. If your child is older, they will have a personal interview as well.

  • If Riley feels like a good fit, we will schedule a week for your child to shadow classes with a similarly-aged student. At the conclusion of that week, we will meet again to discuss the experience and ensure that Riley is a school where your child - and your family - want to be.
