From our Principal

River’s Edge High School is an alternative high school in the Richland School District. River’s Edge places an emphasis on providing an educational opportunity for students that are not having success in the traditional high school setting. Students enrolled in the Richland School District interested in attending River’s Edge High must apply for admittance or be referred from the home school before being accepted into a River’s Edge program. Students outside of the district may apply and may be accepted as space is available. There is a full-day campus program as well as semi-independent study options. Graduation requirements and course standards are the same as those at other Richland high schools.

River’s Edge Middle School is an alternative middle school which takes referrals from other Richland middle schools only for enrollment in its day attendance program.
