Why Choose Rio Schools: Here's Our Story

Who We Are

We are Rio Community Schools, a small and very vibrant district in southern Columbia County. Every student at Rio is invited to choose to excel. Our small class size encourages individual involvement and interaction between staff and students, helping to ensure all students grow. Our small school culture allows for abundant opportunity to be active in many extracurricular activities including athletics, clubs, music, forensics and community outreach. Parents and community members are continually engaged in our schools as volunteers and supporters, creating a deep partnership between the school community and the greater Rio area that many other districts envy. We invite you to visit Rio Schools.
