I think Riverside is a great school to attend. The teachers work hard to give us a good education. My class has such wonderful people within. I have nothing but positive to say about my school,

My overall experience at this school hasn't been too bad. I started here in my 9th grade year I am now a senior. Riverside is not a bad school whatsoever and I've had fun here quite a couple times. If you'd like your kids to get a good education yet enjoy their high school years, allow them to go to Riverside Highschool.

Best part are the teachers. Worst part are Guidance counselors do not guide the students. Overall experience was good as a student. I would change the guidance counselors preparing students for college.
