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.

The amount of drugs at the school has me concerned for the children there. I never thought my son would have had access to so many drugs. There's a reason they call it the pharmacy. It's just sad. :(

River Bluff is great when it comes to preparing you for the real world and helping with college. We meet with guidance counselors to talk about our plans for after high school and they help us achieve our goals. One thing that needs to change is the internet, we constantly get set back by having terrible connection but overall the school is a good and helpful place.

This is an incredible school with many opportunities. There are many AP classes allowing students to challenge themselves and put themselves out there. The teachers and staff here are so nice and help with everything. I've only been here a while but honestly it feels like a home. River Bluff is a great school and the flex-mod schedule is helpful because it allows students time to study and work during the day.

We can meet with teachers, tutors, and counselors by simply sending an email and visiting during matching ILT. The schedule i...

My child entered freshmen year of high school in Honors and AP Classes, being very involved in sports and comes from a stable home life. Within three months after school began, we had a completely different child so don't think, with even the best of circumstances, it cannot happen to your kid. Curr...
