Your kids will stagnant if you send them to this school with its "just do the minimum" from the subpar Illinois curriculum. If you want to just meet the minimum required standards, this is your place. Our child for her first year here did not learn one thing new, and now after a few years they are finally teaching things that she hadn't previously learned. The superintendent Josh Temple definitely has little control over the staff and it seems people just do what they want. Example a few years ago he did not manage the school maintenance staff and they just let most of the grounds go unmowed the entire summer. 4' tall prairie is what they had the week school was to start and they asked the community to bail them out. Not even going to mention the mask mandates and snow days with no snow. Definitely if you have to move to this area go across the river to Iowa with Pleasant Valley or if you have to stay in Illinois make sure you live in Geneseo school district. You will be much happier with children's education.

As a student of Riverdale, I have nothing but positive things to say. There are so many great benefits of attending such a tight knit school and living in this community. The teachers genuinely want you to succeed, and make it their business to ensure that you do your absolute best. We have great guidance counselors that do amazing in helping decide college/testing decisions, and the size enables students to get involved in any extracurricular they want. Students are encouraged to get involved in Student Council, Rotary Interact, FFA, sports, and Robotics, among others. Nothing but positive things to say about this school and its faculty!

This school does nothing about bullying. They suspended a student for only a day for threatening to shoot someone. It is ran by homophobia and sports. Only some teachers are nice, and make learning fun. Otherwise don't waste your time here. Your child will either be bullied or become one.
