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.

Riverview has good academic class options such as AP classes and has good teachers for those classes. I wish they had more creative classes though, a photography or one year film class where we learn to make films, and not just analyze them. I know that friends of mine and myself would love to take those types of classes.

Plenty of openly hateful teachers and students, high-standard academics and an IB program with ridiculous requirements. Was told to go back to my country by a certain teacher :).

Riverview High School is a great school for academics, they offer many higher level courses like AP and IB. I am personally part of the IBCP program and it is a very active program when it comes to knowledge for college and other important aspects of our future. I do believe that people here have a wide range of classes and courses they can take to help prepare to help prepare them for their future. Some aspects are limited like well versed teachers, but overall the grading and teachers are pretty fair.

The curriculum and quality of the instruction in the IB program were quite high. Teachers were enthusiastic and engaged and my kids felt ch...
