GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I'm an Asian student, and I came from Vietnam. The first time when I came to Riverside High School as a Junior, I was impressed by the school campus. I love the teachers and the staff there because they help me a lot with my language. I love my school so much.

This school is definitely different than the first school i attended. I have fun in the classrooms and with my friends that go there but they also have ridiculous rules and regulations.

The teachers are very nice and knowledgeable about what they teach. They make sure that the students are paying attention to what they are talking about and will go above and beyond for you to pass their class.

The only good ratings this school gets is from the students..... I don't think I could have given you a reliable opinion of the quality of education I received from MY high school when I was a kid....Those students aren't going to realize they received a poor education until they become adults........
