About the School

Richmond School was built in 1950. There are 14 classrooms - 3 of which are leased by the Richmond Child Care Association. We have a large computer area in our Library, a dedicated Music room, a sheltered small group area for English as a Second Language instruction, and a Gymnasium with a stage. A large newly designed Creative Playground is located at the south end of the school.
