Riverside High School is a below average school overall, but has a huge draw from its PLTW engineering program, which is rigorous and excellent.

Riverside has been a great school for both of my kids, providing a broad educational experience, a variety of clubs and sports, an award winning PLTW engineering program and an award winning student newspaper. My daughter was well prepared for college by her experience at Riverside.
