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.

River Dell is a great school with so many opportunities for every kind of student. River Dell has challenging classes for students who want to challenge themselves academically, and so many clubs for every interest. River Dell also has study abroad trips during spring break and an Italian exchange program.
