There are some classes that could be taught a little better, math being one of the bigger ones, but there are also great history teachers. I would like to see some changes to the lack of attention given to the amazing music program.

River Valley High is definitely a great school for such a small rural community. It offers a wide selection of AP and transcripted credit classes, along with amazing teachers to get students well prepared for post-high school life. The sports along with academics are very outstanding as well.
