Riverstone’s School Welcomes Back Students

August 12, 2022

The “Sunbirds” are back in session at Stone Creek Elementary school. The TK-6th grade school—located within the 2,000-acre master-planned community of Riverstone—belongs to the award-winning Golden Valley Unified School District, one of the highest performing school districts in the Central Valley.

Belonging to Golden Valley USD, Stone Creek Elementary school at Riverstone features 21st century classrooms, a state-of-the-art Library/Media Center, a dedicated music room, outdoor learning spaces and an outdoor amphitheater.
The innovative 15.5-acre campus of Stone Creek Elementary school includes a dynamic sports complex with high-quality sports courts, ball fields and playgrounds.

“We are excited to kick off another successful school year,” said Stone Creek Elementary principal, Shellie Roth. “Our entire team of educators and administrative staff have been hard at work preparing for the year to come…and we can’t wait to ‘shape hearts and minds’ as we inspire our students to develop strong character and achieve their academic potential.”

An innovative 15.5-acre campus conveniently situated just a short walk or bike ride away from Riverstone’s new-home collections, Stone Creek Elementary school features tech-forward 21st century classrooms, a state-of-the-art Library/Media Center, a dedicated music room, outdoor learning spaces, an outdoor amphitheater and a dynamic sports complex with the highest-quality ball fields and playgrounds.

Adding a whole dimension to school-life convenience is Riverwalk, the new retail district of Riverstone that is located practically around the corner from Stone Creek Elementary. Whether it’s grabbing an early morning coffee or smoothie, picking up an after-school treat or enjoying a family meal, Riverwalk makes it easy. The ever-growing variety of stores includes Dutch Bros. Coffee, Judy’s Donuts, a Fresh Fill food market with an in-store Juice It Up!, as well as Papi’s Mex Grill, a local favorite that has been serving authentic and delicious Mexican food in the Valley for almost a decade. Coming soon to Riverwalk will be Blast & Brew, an American eatery and tap house. Situated right next door will be its famous sister company, Me-n-Ed’s Pizza, which will offer delivery and take-out of its award-winning, brick-oven-baked pizza to enjoy at home.

“For many families, we realize that education is at the top of the list when considering a new-home community,” said Riverstone’s Tim Jones. “In fact, we like to say that a big part of finding a dream home is finding a dream school district. And clearly, we’ve got one of the best. We feel so fortunate to belong to Golden Valley USD, Madera’s number-one school district.”

Comprising nine schools serving nearly 2,000 students, Golden Valley USD maintains an exceptional student-teacher ratio of 24:1 and was named a Silver Award recipient for Best High Schools from U.S. News & World Report. Athletics are strong as well. Over the years, teams at the district’s high school—Liberty High School—have won multiple league championships and CIF Section Championships.

Situated in the heart of the region’s path of growth, Riverstone—when complete—will total approximately 6,578 single-family, attached and multi-family homes. Coming soon is the one-million-square-foot Riverwalk mixed-use lifestyle retail destination. Amenities at Riverstone include walkable neighborhoods, parks and open space, a dog park, a sustainable water supply and The Lodge community clubhouse with resort-style swimming pools, a trainer-designed fitness center, demonstration kitchen, Gear Barn, outdoor gathering spaces with firepits, and ongoing monthly activities such as self-defense classes, book clubs, arts and crafts, specialty meal cooking classes and more. Future amenities are anticipated to include hiking and biking trails, a community farm and much more.
