The majority of the teachers at the school are nice and want to help you. However the current art teacher at the school is extremely bad. She’s known to be rude to both students and parents. Lots of times kids get in trouble in her class for no reason as she will turn the simplest mistake into a ginormous issue. The principal is not all that good and often will not contact parents about different events until the day before. The kids often get punished unfairly. Often times whenever several kids in the class are not behaving what they do is taken time off of recess from the WHOLE class instead of punishing just the ones who are misbehaving. Also kids who usually do very bad things at schools don’t get properly punished. While kids who make simple mistakes get punished all the time others who misbehave constantly while the principal states that kids who misbehave after testing is done will be expelled and even though we had 2 kids at the end of the year who should have been expelled nothing ever happened to them. Another thing is that the art teacher will never let kids use the bathroom. One time a 6th grader even got in trouble because he asked to go to the bathroom. She ended up getting an attitude with him and mentioned that she already told him yesterday when he asked to go Overall while I loved the school and most of the teachers it’s sad to see it having a lackluster principal who sometimes we don’t see for days at a time and such a bad art teacher.

This is our first year at Riverview East Academy. My child is a 7th grader. So far, we love this place. My daughter is on the Volleyball team. The Principle, Teachers, Coaches and the Security are amazing. They have all made me, my child and my family feel welcome like we have been there for years. I also love the fact that there is a zero tolerance for Bullying and Principle Wolf and her staff make sure that the children stay safe and focused on learning. So happy to be apart of the Riverview East family.
