Rivermont Schools' Danville Campus Announces Relocation to a New, Expanded Facility

New 20,000+ sq. ft. campus to open fall 2026, bringing expanded classrooms, specialized therapy spaces, and greater capacity to the ability to serve more students and families in the Danville community

DANVILLE, Va., May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rivermont Schools is excited to announce the upcoming relocation of its Danville campus to a new, larger facility located at 301 Lowes Dr, Danville, VA 24540 for the 2026-2027 school year.

The Danville campus will remain the same trusted school families and districts have partnered with for 28 years. Specifically, the building

• Includes 14 classrooms, creating more flexibility for student grouping, individualized instruction, and future program growth.
• Dedicated therapy rooms for supportive services
• Gymnasium and playground for movement and recreation
• Cafeteria and library for connection and learning
• Life skills room for practical instruction, and
• Sensory room that offers students a calming space during the school day.

"We've outgrown our current space, and this new facility gives our team the resources to continue doing what we do best: meeting every student where they are and helping them grow. We are excited to expand our reach and continue to serve our community," said Tia Hairston, Principal of the Rivermont Schools Danville.

Families and district partners will continue to receive updates throughout the process to help ensure a smooth and well-planned transition. Learn more here or reach out to Dominique Pretlow at [email protected] for more information.
