A few attributes I loved about Riverside High School was how the faculty and staff cared so strongly for their students and wanted to see their students succeed.

Riverside is a school which celebrates boringness and monotony. The bathrooms are always filthy and half of the male teachers are creeps.

Riverside is the only high school in my county so I did not have much of a choice in going there but I enjoyed it very much. It was very down to earth, everyone knew me and I knew them
