7/12/2025
River Ridge has a great community and it's very diverse and the student life is really nice but the administration kind of sucks and it feels like they're more focused on rules rather than student activities, student, involvement, and academics
4/15/2025
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.
12/20/2024
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.

As a parent of 2 graduates from River Ridge, I was extremely pleased with their experience at Ridge. They were fully prepared to head off to college, but if their path would have been a vocational school, they would have been ready for that as well. They both had the opportunity to be in leadership...

I have attended this school, during this time I found that the students here dread every day because of the environment. 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. From what I can see, its been a lot better experience for the students from the main office staff to specialist teachers. I've worked closely with the College and Career Center (misses Rose) and they have been helpful....
12/2/2022
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...
