Lately, it's been a bit hectic with all the construction going on. Last week, while they started remodeling the track, it smelled like a rotten animal carcass?? And just yesterday there was an evacuation, not related to the construction, though. The school is overall okay. I'm not necessarily proud of going here, because of all the drama people stir up, but I like most of the teachers and classes.

Our school environment is very diverse and has a lot of school spirit along with staff support. The teachers I've had the past four years are amazing and have helped learn so many valuable lessons I will need in the real world.
12/9/2024
My best experience is the student culture and encouragement of collaboration with students. The worst part I would say is the safety is very skeptical as it is a more open campus. Although as of now they are undergoing renovations to change that issue.

This place has some of the worst teachers and office people I have met, I was lucky enough to have a couple teachers to help and support my academics during my education. This sch...

RIver Ridge High School has had an unheavel of mediocre teachers and staff leave.

I've worked closely with the College and Career Center (misses Rose) and they have been helpful....

I attended River Ridge High School from 2018-2022. I would say as a general rule, most teachers care about students and try their hardest to promote learning and equality. As for the administration team, they are absolutely horrible. I was having issues in the 2019/20 school year needing protection...
