I loved Ribét when I went here. There is so much to be involved in for a small school. Teachers actually care about you and know your name. The school is what you make it so a positive attitude goes a long way. There is great programs that range from so many things - science, math, art, dance, sports etc.. which is crazy that it all comes from one small school. I highly recommend Ribét! Go Fighting Frogs!!

Overall I love the school, but like any other student i'd like to see more job security for the teachers that care and that are awesome. I also wish that the girls basketball coach would be replaced by someone else, he has been my coach for the past three years and I think the girls program needs a change.

I really regret sending my child here. They are really behind in their academics. Ribet does not provide all of the programs they claim to. There is little to no enrichment for students. The Teacher turn over rate is extremely high. They have been consistently losing a lot of families.

This school is getting progressively worse every year. At first, it was decent, there some good teachers, but many of them are inexperienced. There are some really good teachers at this school but every school year they fire the teachers in order to replace them with cheaper alternatives, and like I...
