Independent Study Program
Questionnaire: Is Riverbend Virtual Academy Right For You?
Welcome to Riverbend Virtual Academy.
Riverbend Virtual Academy offers a virtual educational experience for students in grades 4–8. As an online program, we provide weekly or biweekly one-on-one check-in meetings with students and families to ensure they stay on track with their learning.
As part of the Thermalito Union Elementary School District (TUESD), Riverbend students have the opportunity to participate in sports, clubs, grade-level field trips, dances, and environmental camps at their home schools. These activities help us create a well-rounded school experience.
Riverbend Virtual Academy is TUESD’s enhanced Independent Study program, designed for families who wish to take a more active role in their child's education. In this model, parents act as the primary Learning Coach, providing direct supervision and monitoring their child’s progress.
Our online curriculum, Bright Thinker, covers all core subjects and is tailored to meet the needs of our students.
Riverbend Virtual Academy is free for students in grades 4–8 who reside within the Thermalito Union Elementary School District. We are located at 2075 Poplar Street, Oroville, CA 95965. For more information, please call us at (530) 534-7843.
