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.

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.

Here at Riverside we have a diverse crowd which includes an abundance of great people. However, I believe that to bring everyone closer together we should have more programs available to bring us even closer such as a theater club, an art club, or maybe even an Honor Society.

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
