10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWorst middle school I’ve ever dealt with. After several incidents involving my son, there was no apology, the staff was unfriendly and unprofessional, and the school never responded or followed up. My son was embarrassed, singled out, and left in tears.Especially the people who work in the office — they were the most unfriendly, defensive, and unprofessional staff I’ve ever encountered. Instead of helping or communicating respectfully, they made the situation worse with their attitude and lack of care. The communication at this school is extremely poor, and the way they treat students and parents is completely unacceptable.Parent Review8mo ago - River Ridge Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSpecial ed program in this school is bad. They take the easy way out. If you are parent with special education child please do research before enrolling. They promise something and eventually put the kids in ICAP. Advice to principal Ms Shelly- Please understand that special needs kids are children who need not be secluded as you think. Please change your mind set as this will jeopardize the school reputationParent Review9y ago - Vandegrift High School
