RiverTree offers students the chance to participate in a part-time version of The Arrowsmith Program. Students who participate in the program go through an intensive assessment, then visit the Arrowsmith classroom at least one time each school day to do cognitive strengthening exercises. There is a fee above and beyond regular school tuition to participate. To learn more about the program, visit The Arrowsmith Program website.
