Teachers make this school operate-those that care. Unfortunately the school suffers from a student population of bad apples (about 40%) who choose not to care about their education care and parent involvement is near zero. Also too many expelled students are allowed to re-enroll- students see no consequences.
... Read more And there are gang issues. The school could easily regain its 'glory' by enforcing disciplinary punishments and making expelled students wait 2 full semesters before being considered for re-enrollement. Add a dean of discipline to the administrator staff as well as a custodial staff that care about the school--not just a contract. And come up with ways for every parent to want to be at RNH as much as their children. Read less

I am a student at RNE, and though there is a somewhat high number of students in gangs, I wouldn't go to a different school. We have an excellent journalistic program as well as quality performing arts. Most teachers know what they are doing, though a few could care less. Change for the better is always

We have a few resource officers near the school as well as about 7 administrators. Overall I would say that this school is a better choice than the competing schools surrounding it. Read less

Good: Only top 1000 high schools in region #758. School facilities (1978) have been revamped in science, art, and media center. Their Palmetto Center for the Arts is a 2005 Kennedy Center creative ticket winner. District spending mass money at RNHS to increase learning, decrease poor PR. Also a big 2005
... Read more Federal Grant was awarded. Athletics. Teachers make this school operate. Bad: School suffers from overt transitional student population who don't care, nill parent involvement. Particular faculty allowed to build kingdoms in their departments and do not share teaching workload. Allows many expelled students to re-enroll making discipline problems. Some gang issues. Improvements: Disciplinary punishments not severe enough, ignored by students. Need more administrators, more custodians needed. Projection: RNHS just as good as the other 3 HS in the district (SV,BHS,RVHS) but is slandered by city newspaper and other enrollment zone teachers and observing parents who don't know the schools vices.

RNE offers alot of wonderful activities, but there is just too much gang activity. Kick out the riff-raff and it would be 100% better. My two daughters are naive and want to see the best in everyone and sometimes they put their faith in the wrong people. It really scares me the people they have to
... Read more encounter on a day to day basis. I wish my kids didn't have to go there. I would pull them out in a minute if I could. It is such a large school too that nobody knows you. There is no personal touch, which we are not used to. It is hard for kids that are shy to flourish when there is sooo much of everything. Read less

I am writing this as a past student and sibling of a present student that attends RNE. The reviews on this school that i have seen are only half truths. Lets take into consideration that gang activity is very high. All though there are few teachers that actually care about working and helping the students.
... Read more The majority of the teachers dont care if their students pass or fail. The principal is rarely around. RNE i can say have a few things going for them but your cant have a post with just people saying one thing. Read less

RNE is an extraordinary school. It offers a breadth and depth of academics that no other school in the Midlands can match at all levels. It is well run. It seems that the administration and faculty are always looking for innovative ways to make education more exciting. Just as important, the students

My daughter recently attended to Richland Northeast High School! She then had to be transferred to another high school because we moved and because of her behavior. Although she had excellent grades, her behavior was still bad. She didn't realize until she left that Richland Northeast what a great school.
... Read more The teachers taught, the surroundings were better, a better environment for her to learn was at Richland northeast High. She would tell me those things all of the time. She would complain to me all the time about how she wanted to go back, but I would tell her that she missed out. So I think Richland Northeast is a great school because my daughter still talks about it until this day. Read less
