Riverbend Academy offers many fun school-wide events throughout the year so watch the calendar for updates!
Grandparents Day
Grandparents Day is held in the fall each year and is a great opportunity for grandparents to visit the school, assemble for presentations of song, chants and musical presentations by the students, visit the classrooms, meet the teachers and gain a better understanding of how their grandchildren spend their school days!
Grandparents Day is scheduled for Friday, September 15, 2023.
Back the Blue
Back the Blue is a loved annual event that includes demonstrations, helicopter water drops, explosions, and the much anticipated kickball game between the officers and the students! We are so thankful for our local law enforcement - Volusia Sheriff's Office, Ormond Beach Police Dept., Beach Patrol, and Flagler Fire! Back the Blue is held in January. Our next Back the Blue event is scheduled for Friday, January 12, 2024.
Riverbend Academy Ministry Night
Academy Ministry Night is held annually at Riverbend Community Church and is an opportunity for students to share with parents and members of the church. It is a great night of presentations with songs, chants and memorizations, drama, and testimonies as a tribute to all that God is doing at the Academy. Our next Academy Ministry Night is scheduled for Wednesday, February 21, 2024.
Growing a Legacy Gala
The annual Growing a Legacy Dinner & Gala is the largest fundraiser for the Academy and is a great opportunity to enjoy a fun night out with friends, good food and many opportunities to support the Academy through the live and silent auctions.
The Growing a Legacy Gala was held in February at Hard Rock Hotel Daytona Beach. We are so thankful for all who supported the Gala through volunteer efforts, donations for live and silent auction, and of course, attendance at the Gala. It proved to be an amazing night out for our families, raising over $130,000. Stay tuned for more details for our 2024 event scheduled for Saturday, March 16, 2024.
