Overall I think the school is wonderful I have been here since kindergarten and I wouldn't change it however, I believe that the pep rallies are in need of some major help. Everyone needs to be more happy, give the kids a reason to want to go to pep rallies. The food should be a little more diverse and give the girls more recognition that they deserve the softball team is better than the football team but they're barley even notice. But the teachers good, students amazing, bullying at a low for the most part, and the band omg they are just to die for

I like how friendly everyone is. It's so small that everyone knows just about every person on campus.

Richland High School is an amazing school. The teachers help the students if they need help and if you ever have a problem with something within the school you can talk to you peers, teacher,administration, and so much more. At Richland High school the students all know one another and for the most part we all get along.
