Curiosity moves us forward.

Our Mission

James River Day School cultivates intellectual curiosity

and strength of character in a joyful community.

We had our final farewell for our eighth graders at graduation, which is always a bittersweet moment. We are so proud of our eighth graders and look forward to hearing of their future successes in high school and beyond!

Our School Community and Our Greater Community

This is only the second year that Field Day has been a whole school event, and it was such a joy to watch all of our students get the opportunity to be kids. We are also excited to partner with Wild Ones (formerly Blue Ridge Conservation) to begin planting a native garden at the front of campus. These gardens are not only intended to beautify our campus but also to support pollinators in our area.
