meaningful opportunities for student engagement, we ensure that every learner is prepared for success in college, career, and life.

Important Announcement

We understand that many families have students in both the River Islands Academies K-8 schools, and also in the Banta Unified High School.  Due to unforeseen circumstances, the high school starts earlier than the K-8 schools in this upcoming year and that Spring Break does not occur at the same time.   For the next school year (2027-2028), Banta Unified and River Islands Academies will endeavor to start the school year at the same time and will try to coincide all breaks. Banta and RIA cannot promise that all dates will match between the High School and the K-8s, but they are aware of the difficulties and will try to address the issue.
