GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

All the teachers at River Ridge are nice and willing to help the students. The facilities are also amazing, and everything is well maintained. I would like to see more challenging classes. In addition, more classes should be offered. The classes should prepare us more for college, but overall the experience is excellent.

My school is surrounded very low populated towns, my graduating class is a grand total of 35 students, pretty amazing! Our student to teacher ratio helps aid in many students preforming amazingly at their academics!

River Ridge is okay in general, it's main flaw is that it resides in a rural and conservative area, making it small and a less than hospitable environment for minorities. It just needs to become more diverse.
