Posted by a community member on 3/31/2020My son is finishing 1st grade at Riverdale, and I couldn't be happier with the teachers he's had so far. They have been so supportive, and so good at giving individual care and instruction. Frankly I don't know how they do it!
Posted by a parent on 5/22/2017Excellent school, my son have been there for 3rd, 4th & 5th grade and had all awesome teachers and a great experience. Very clean & nice building, & well organized faculty.
Posted by a parent on 3/3/2013My kid started his school life in Riverdale, and now he is in First grade. We consider ourselves fortunate to have this school during the formative years of our only child. The KG teacher had been remarkable -- a sophisticated, knowledgeable, deep person with lots of compassion. The first grade teacher is also nice, and pushes the student to achieve more and more. And the principal Sean Maguire is a fantastic unassuming person -- always active with the kids and the parents. The parent-teacher interaction is superb in this school.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is honestly great the teachers for the most part teach well, the kids well chatty are decent, and there aren’t any fights (well there have been a few). As well as this as I read the reviews it seems like back then this school was a lot worse, so I’ll say that it isn’t what it seemed to use to be. Unfortunately because this school is so small there are almost no electives, the only ones are ict, Pe,the various music stuff, and project lead the way. In my case I’m a computer guy so I was good to take ict but other people may have other interests like art for example. Also there is no gym and it sucks but in the schools defense that would cost a lot of money. Now I don’t want to say anything rude to the staff because for the most part the staff is pretty good but I feel like teachers don’t listen to the kids enough, because I’ve gotten in trouble numerous times for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time: They would never listen to me when I tried to explain (this isn’t a thing with all the staff). Next up the cafeteria (oh boy) they for some odd reason will get mad at you if you get up from your seat, and it’s not just that it’s the fact that you’ll get in trouble because you stand up to throw your stuff away but they think you’re trying to go sit somewhere else and get mad at you. Also if you sit somewhere your not allowed to move, now I can sorta get this but not at all is sorta bad because what if you sit with the wrong people and then you want to move welp to bad guess your getting lunch detention. Now I’m saying all the negative of this school so why did I give such a high rating, Becuase nothing is really perfect and I think overall this school is great. The teachers (for the most part) are nice and understanding the school as a decently fair punishment system and the homework is just the right amount. So would i going here, well if your kid or yourself is smart enough (a’s and b’s) then yes I would go here. Also I would recommend going here if you want a smaller school with less kids. One of the main reasons I went hear is because I have adhd and because of this school my behavior is so much better. So cyaStudent Review6mo ago - Lawton Chiles Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTeachers are usually the first bully's your child will have at this school. Then as time goes on the student bullying issue will show up and the teachers do nothing. Speaking with the principal is of little help and they will refuse to fill out paperwork when your child is bullied to document it. They require an excessive amount of homework compared to other schools. All they care about is the school rating. It's interesting that they have a zero tolerance for bullying yet they are aware it is extensive so therefore they have a strong tolerance for bullying.Parent Review1y ago - Growing Together Academy

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teachers at this school really feel like family. My kids have had a wonderful experience with learning and understanding all the curriculum. I love that they feel challenged and are confident in what they are being taught! My kids have come out of their shells with all the things they have to offer there (dance, drama, PE, etc)Parent Review3mo ago - Sunset Christian Preparatory
