The community at Riverside Christian School is like a family. The teacher to student ratio helps each individual grow and have more success to the beat of their ability. Riverside is full is many different types of people who all have a story to tell.

Homophobic. They say they're "Christian" but I'm reality all this schools did for me was make me feel bad about myself. There is automatic expulsion if you are LGBT. And all the teachers always talk about "the gays" and how we're going to hell. They aren't Christian, they just try to brainwash you into their small minded thinking. By the way, when I went into collage, this school had not prepared me for it AT ALL.
