My overall experience with Riverdale is amazing. The entire structure of the school is wonderful, from parent engagements, and students playing many sports to having plays for friends and families to come and watch. I would recommend many parents to bring their child/ren to this school because it is well rounded and has bible classes.

My children began attending RBS in Kindergarten. My oldest completed high school at the top of her class and is now attending her dream university on a full scholarship. My youngest is entering his 3rd year of high school and I look forward to seeing the final product as he continues on the next level.

We are extremely impressed with our experience at RBS so far. Our daughter has learned so much from her teachers and has grown academically in ways beyond our expectations. The principal and her administration are reachable and get back to us right away when we have questions and concerns. We highly recommend this school for anyone looking for a safe, educational, and transforming experience for their child(ren).

I usually don't write reviews, but I felt compelled to do one for RBS. Now this review IS important and different from others, because we are in a pandemic, this year has been 100% virtual. I am parent of current Kindergartner at RBS, so my child started their first year of school, online. I started...

I attended RBS five years through middle school and high school. While I struggled with grades due to ADD, I had many teachers and staff who encouraged me and assisted in my learning. Even through our 2020 year (Covid and all) RBS had us prepared to keep learning from the beginning of the pandemic....
