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.

Overall, my experience at Riley High School has been good. I do not think I would like to see any changes at my school, but if there were, I would support it if it was a positive change to the community.

I personally do not care for the school. Sadly, Clay closed so i had to transfer here. Not what I wanted but i'm mainly glad that there are wonderful teachers. It might not be the safest area but the good staff and learning experience makes up for it. My only complaint is that, I do not feel challenged.

I like most of the teachers and staff. There is a lot of vaping . You have to have a clear backpack unless you are an athlete but bag are to be kept in a specific location.
