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.

My time at Riverside High School has taught me many important lessons. Not only have I realized the importance of education and the pursuit of it, but also the importance of maintaining good character and self discipline. Being a student at Riverside has taught me to be the best version of myself, and I now know that if you want to succeed in life you have to be good to those around you. I am proud to be a Riverside Ranger.

The best part about my experience here at Riverside High School are the unforgettable memories I have created with my friends. The worst part about it, is probably the kids that do drugs and make our school unsafe for no reason.

Spending my high school experience at Riverside High School was amazing it helped me step out of my comfort zone, helped me find I wanted to do as my career. Another thing about this school is that the administration, faculty and staff love to see all the students being involved and being successful.
