River Springs Charter School's Murrieta location is one of nine of the charter's locations throughout Riverside County. Chartered under the Riverside County Office of Education, its Murrieta campus serves students in grades kindergarten through eighth in two formats: the Classical Academy or the Montessori model. Classical students attend school on Mondays and Tuesdays and are home-schooled the rest of the week. Montessori students attend school Wednesday through Thursday, and are home-schooled the other days.
River Springs Charter is free of charge, giving an option other than a traditional public school environment. Personal learning plans are tailored to fit each student's needs.
