Farm-to-School Week

During the week of November 8–12, 2010, James River Day School participated in its first Farm-to-School week. Students ate produce from local farms and on the last day, parents were invited to a farmers' market held at the school. They were able to see what their children were learning and purchase foods directly from the farmers. Farms-to-School is a statewide program in Virginia that teaches kids about the importance of eating local foods, and exposing kids to healthy eating earlier in life.[3]

Accreditation

The Virginia Association of Independent Schools has accredited JRDS since 1979.
