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.

I like my school and think it is great, the teachers are great too. The only downside would be lack of funding.

During my 4 years attending this school i had a very fun experience .The staff made sure i did what i was supposed to do to graduate I stayed with good grades throughout all my whole 4 years here. I think that Riverside should have a little more school sprite and engagement with the students here. It is a good school.with a lot of different cultures between the staff and students. In river side diversity makes up everything about the school because it is what gives our school its personality. Another thing can be changed and its the building it just need a makeover.
