my overall experience is that they're really strict and you get out of school really late for being in high school well, I can't check myself out because I'm 18

Personally, I had a great time at Riverdale. I was in the band and although we weren't top notch, we were still a very good band and I had lots of fun. I had a good relationship with the staff and there were fun events. Some of the staff were a bit mean and didn't listen to the students.

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.
