Riverwood middle school was an overall great school. our principle, Mr. Lee was a fantastic older gentleman who sadly passed away. The staff genuinely cared about us and our success. It is also located in a very convenient area as it is in the Riverwood subdivision. The sports were also a huge activity and many students would get involved with them.

As a 8th grader who was here during the school year 2024-2025 i feel like the school got more better but there was still fights some teachers don’t care about there positions the 8th grade assistant principal is a big problem and only takes on white kids.

Punishments for petty "crimes" or acts rather are ridiculously harsh and half of the teachers do not teach. (mind you, coming from an A+ st...

Terrible school some teachers will make fun of you. I go here and it isn't very good. Most students don't care about anyone.
