8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved to Riverside from another highly rated Chicago suburb and have been incredibly impressed by the energy and engagement of the teaching staff at Central. My daughter is excited to go to school every day, and that has been true with all three of the teachers she has had at Central. We recruited dear friends to move to Riverside as well, and they have noted a marked improvement in the teaching quality, professionalism and resources available at Central compared to their last elementary school, also a 9 rated school.Parent Review13y ago - L J Hauser Jr High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere isn’t really much of anything that I strongly disagree with, except for the fact that bullying is very common among many people, as such I alone know what the effects of such are on me, which got really bad. Everyone keeps dissing on the teachers who are doing their best and I personally find it funny as the same people are flunking the classes they are complaining about, but the staff and teachers care about everyone’s well being and how they’re teaching us and how we interact with each other. Nothing is personally wrong with my perspective but the bullying issues need to stop and during the upcoming school year I will try to stop this problem and give everyone a better look on the school for mine and met friends own 8th grade yearsStudent Review8mo ago - Riverside Brookfield Twp High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageRB is a great environment for our son, and we're happy we made the decision to move here for High School. We have two daughters that will also attend here. The environment feels very safe. Good mix of athletics and academics. Our son is a Sophomore and was new to the area his freshman year. He has thrived academically and socially. Great AP courses that are challenging. Make sure to get involved with class programming as the counselors do let the kids have a lot of attitude in what they want to select for courses. We came from an excellent private school, and RB was a great transition to pubic ed. The principal is an enthusiastic leader and keeps the teachers, staff and students engaged.Parent Review4mo ago
