I went to River Hill my senior year in 2022-2023 and it was the best experience of my life! Everyone was so nice there, so inclusive, and the Best Buddies program has helpers that cared to help special needs kids! It's a great community where I can see all of my friends at the Columbia Gym and is the #1 school in the universe!

As a current student at rhhs, I feel like I fit right in! It's honestly very academically competitive, but that just means there's always a push to do better!

He later found his passion in the music production class with Mr. McCready, which he loved so much he be...

River hill is good on achieving good grades and good test scores, if you are willing to sacrifice your mental wellbeing and devote nonstop to studying for tests. It has a nickname of River Pill for a reason. Parents turn the other way as long as their kids achieve perfect scores. The problem is that...
