The school establishes perfect guidelines Aid you in furthering your education. Not only do they have the IB program. They also have classes outside of that program that also further your education and prepare you for college courses.

Overall my experience with Riverdale High School is an experience that is both good and bad. It all depends on the teachers that you get. The staff is both uptight and loose in some aspects such as uniforms, or IDs. The teachers in general are very good and kind. They are giving to the students and encourage them to do better at every aspect being the people to cheer their students to the finish line. They also have a rigorous IB program that has a heavy work load but pays off as it gets the student ready for college.

Riverdale is great for students or parents that are searching for a functioning community led by administrators. School culture is great yet academics and facilities could be drastically improved.
