Established in 1987, River Oaks Academy (ROA) is a specialized private school in Houston, TX, where students have the freedom and the guidance to explore their unique talents and with a high-quality, individualized approach, often referred to as UDL, or Universal Design for Learning.

We cultivate a supportive and enjoyable private school education from which students can learn and express themselves with confidence and peace. We have a culture of understanding and acceptance of individual differences providing learning opportunities for all students to apply core principles of respect and appreciation for others.

The intentionally small student-teacher ratio at our school allows each student to participate in ways they cannot in large schools, where they may be lost in the crowd. Each student is well-known and personally regarded. An elected Student Council provides representation, leadership, and guidance for activities of interest to all students.
