The Riverside Engineering Program allowed me to learn how to use many machines like laser cutters and #D printers. The teachers at Riverside are also extremely caring and make you really feel like they want you to succeed just as much as you do. Teacher shave constantly helped me with work both before and after school. Knowing that teacher will take valuable out of school hours to help me makes me want to succeed even more. I have also been able to learn things like wiring and coding which I use for personal hobbies like coding a program that always gets the Wordle within three tries. The worst part of the school has to be the administration. The admins at Riverside are very disorganized and have switched the school schedule three times in the past year.

The best part of my experience there at the school is meeting some of the teachers. Most of them are really good people and teachers, and almost everyone has a pleasant experience with them. The worst part is how a few handful of students tend to vape/smoke and destroy the bathrooms, tearing off the mirrors and locks and clogging the sinks, and almost none of it gets repaired or is really delt with by any of the administration.

I really enjoy being a student at Riverside High School. It has overall exceeded my expectations of a public High School. There is a place for every student with a wide variety of arts, sciences, sports, language, diversity, and more. I do wish we had better bathrooms and food, but I have felt very involved and cared for at my school, and all the teachers I've had have been really nice and actually care about their students learning. Overall, a great place to learn new things and grow as a teenager.

The students run this school, the administrative does not have the knowledge to de-escalate situations. This school does have some great teachers. If the school had better administrative staff this would be a awesome school

Its an OK school, some great teachers, some not so great. My girls love it, though. They made good friends. Good Latin program, engaged teacher, they are starting to read The Gallic War. The engineering program is good, and the leader is great - but mostly showed my girls that they don't want to be...

Fabulous. The engineering electives are top-notch (though a bit too heavy on the workload/complexity of projects and deadlines for high schoolers). The principal has innovative ideas and seems fearless in implementing them. We have 'smart lunch' right now, where the *entire* school has lunch at the...

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.
