2021 marks 50 years of Quaker education through Richmond Friends School (or “The Children’s School” as many of you knew it!). It’s time to celebrate! If you are an alumni/ae or simply a community member who has watched us grow through the years, we’d love for you to join us in August! Use the form below to register for any of these free events!

RSVP

We are thriving, and we want you to be a part of it! So how can you stay in touch? Well, for starters, we encourage you to join our private alumni Facebook group. You can use that space to reconnect with old friends and find “throwback” photos from years gone by. We have a public Facebook page as well, and honestly, we are even hip enough to be found on Twitter and Instagram. If social media isn’t your thing, no worries. We’d much rather see you in person anyway. If you are in town, please visit. Call 765-966-5767 and request a tour so we can reconnect!

- The Walker Family

"Richmond Friends School teachers develop curriculum that achieve academic excellence through active, experiential, and individualized approaches in which students are enjoying and excelling simultaneously. In this combination, most any student with any learning style can thrive."

- The Wright Family

"RFS focuses as much on academic excellence as social development. Our children are learning how to be strong, positive contributors to society in tangible ways."
