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.

Riverdale High is a small public school. It's located in a small town within Central Valley. Because this school is very small, we are able to easily communicate with our teachers and peers. Everyone is well known, and more many, that is not an advantage but a disadvantage. I believe growing as a person in this small school really benefiting me since I was able to experience more events together as an actual family. But because it's small, there isn't really much to do here.

My overall experience was one I'll always remember. My 4 years at the Riverdale highschool was memorable. The staff and teachers were always so helpful and sincere. Ive made strong connection with the students and I will greatly miss everyone. The choir program is one that will have my heart. I learned so many things within these years. I overcame my social anxiety because of the teachers that would always help me. They never made me feel like I was not important in fact I always felt important. I enjoyed my time being at this school and so sad that my highschool experience is ending. I will always have this school in my heart and will never forget it.
