it's Okay, but could be better. Still improving. I didn't get much counseling about courses or college. I guess I don't matter that much.

I attended River Ridge High School and Middle school.Class of 2000. I thought that this school had its ups and downs or pros and cons. A lot of my teachers knew exactly what they were doing and some of them, well, jumped around too much. As a school with an auditorium that hosts a lot of West Pasco's plays and such, I think that River Ridge had a great Arts Program. Whatever class you were wanting to attend, you didn't seem to have a problem getting into. I think the teachers could be more hands-on with their students, but maybe that has changed. Overall, I think it's a good school, as the grade "B" reflects.

I attend river ridge and i have to say that it is a really great school. they have really nice teachers and staff members. the teacher involvment is verry high. all of my teachers at pep rall's are involved. extracurricular activites and sports are very encoureged at our school. we have foot ball, track, basketball, soccer, and other great sports. the classroom and school is very secure. and as far as homework goes, that depends on the teacher.
