My experience at River Forest High School has been amazing. The teachers and faculty are very genuine people who are always available to help. Being a smaller school no one is overlooked and there is a tight knit community here. The best parts are the amazing peers you will meet and continue school with for your next four years. The worst part would be the lack of money to support the school and students. Having better facilities and more class options would help prepare students for college.

As a student at River Forest High School I have really liked going here because it is a smaller school in a smaller community. There is a lot of support from everyone and they help everyone become the best versions of themselves.

I am giving this school a five star rating because I currently go to this school and I found that the academics and the classes at this school are fantastic. I love being able to call myself a River Forest Ingot. I think that anyone in the school district would think the same things about this school as me.

I feel it is not the schools fault, but our own state funding is the problem. The State of Indiana cuts out millions of dollars from...

This school is not up to par. They offer the opportunity to go to the Career Center but the kids are responsible for their own transportation there and back. That's Crazy! How many 10th graders are driving cars? Why offer it to them if you can't provide transportation? If there are buses for the nor...
8/5/2013
This school is a complete laughing stock of the region, almost as bad as Lake Station schools. the quality of education has declined over the years, and the push for students to achieve better opportunities when they graduate is non existent. You would be better off home schooling your children inst...
