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.

While Riverton Parke is a small community school where you know all of your classmates and teachers personally, it doesn't necessarily do a good job preparing you for college. It doesn't really teach you how to study, and most of the programs can be behind. However, overall, it is a good school that gets you through the state standards.

Riverton is quite the experience! Mostly positive things rather than negative. There are so great teachers there and are really involved with their work and enjoy it more than others.

Riverton Parke has good things and bad things. One of the good things is block scheduling. I personally think that block scheduling prepares you for how your work will be set up in college: a different class every other day. One of the bad things about this school is the lack of discipline. It is a tobacco free campus, but students are often caught chewing or smoking and only receive a warning. Teachers and other faculty members can also be seen using tobacco.

I really love this school, and wouldn't want to go anywhere else. The teachers are easy to reach out to. Plus, you get to really know people (especially since the school is a bit small), and you definitely get to know the teachers. The majority of the teachers are really nice, and we have fun with o...
