The Best in Boys' Education

The Nation’s Preeminent Military School for Boys


For over 112 years, Riverside Military Academy has remained one of the nation's preeminent military boarding schools. Our beautiful 200-acre campus in northern Georgia is a place where young men in grades 6-12 can reach their full potential. Home to a Corps of Cadets that averages over 500 cadets from 30 nations and 30 states, our military school offers a diverse and welcoming environment. Renowned for exemplary academics, competitive athletics, and adherence to the honor code, our military academy has been transforming its students into future leaders since 1907.

A Military School for Teens Unlike the Rest


Riverside Military Academy is not just a military high school; it’s a private school, all-boys school, and boarding school all in one. Riverside Military combines the challenging education of a private school with a safe, structured environment of a military school and the limited distractions of an all-boys boarding school. Every aspect of life as a cadet at Riverside Military is designed to encourage exceptional academic achievement and personal growth.
