At Rivendell, we adhere to three core values
 

Critical Thinking over Memorization

• Through questioning and challenging students, we train them to think for themselves and learn to draw their own conclusions. 

 

Creativity not Conformity

• We reject the education system that normalizes students and punishes creativity. We believe that each student is unique and has their own interests and talents and their own element in which they can thrive.

 

Building People over Building Resumes

• We believe that academic success is a byproduct of a well organized and creative mind, not a goal in itself. We want our students to be prepared for real world success, well beyond university.
