About RCS Daycare
The RCS Daycare was initially opened for the purpose of providing childcare for the families of school staff and younger siblings of elementary students. As capacity increased, daycare services were extended to other families in the surrounding areas as well. The RCS Daycare still prioritizes the needs of school staff and school families. Families who come to Riviera for daycare are eligible for “in-house” enrollment if they choose to continue with preschool or elementary.
Daycare Overview
The RCS Daycare includes three components:
- Daycare for Infants through Toddlers: Year-round program, ages eight weeks through two years old, open from 7:00 am to 5:30 pm.
- Daycare Preschool: Year-round program, ages 3-5, open from 7:00 am to 5:30 pm.
- School-Age Childcare: Riviera students have access to before and after school care. All day care is available during summer break for children under age 12.
