Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live. Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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 ridge was overall a decent school. The biomedical program was the highlight for my experience there. Good teaches and very informative. I wish the school had better school spirit overall

Loved my experience here, but I will say the school is still developing since it is so new, which means many of the systems were not yet developed when I was there.

Overall a very good school with great energy filled environment, very secure and safe. All the teachers are on top of there work and everyone comes as a community to help one another. No one is left out and everyone can express there opinions freely without being judged. It's comforting knowing that this is a safe space to learn!!
