History

Established in 2014.

Fifteen years ago, the Russian School of Mathematics (RSM) emerged from a partnership between a passionate parent and a gifted teacher. As a mother, Inessa Rifkin believed that it was her responsibility to provide her children with the tools to succeed. As a teacher, Irina Khavinson believed that the combination of a good teacher and great curriculum can unlock the potential in every child. As immigrants, they both were convinced that the road to a great education begins with a strong foundation in mathematics.

We decided to open a school to raise a generation of learners able to reason logically and abstractly to solve problems. We have spent over a decade developing a unique curriculum to achieve this goal. In today’s competitive world, we take great pride in knowing that our program has demonstrated measurable results for thousands of our graduates.

We hope we can be a resource for your family.

–Inessa Rifkin and Irina Khavinson
