Riverview Junior/Senior High School

Summary:

Riverview Junior/Senior High School is a public high school located in Oakmont, PA, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 396 students. The school is part of the Riverview School District, which is ranked 106 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania and has a 4-star rating.

Riverview Junior/Senior High School outperforms the state average in several key academic areas, including PSSA English Language Arts and PSSA Science. However, the school's performance in PSSA Math is slightly below the state average. Riverview's Keystone Exam results are mixed, with strong performance in Literature but lower performance in Algebra I and Biology. The school has an exceptional four-year graduation rate of 100% and a very low dropout rate. Riverview has a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, but the school's low socioeconomic status subgroup is underperforming compared to the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, Riverview outperforms many of them, such as Pittsburgh Obama 6-12, Woodland Hills High School, and Valley Junior/Senior High School, in academic measures like PSSA and Keystone Exam proficiency rates. However, the school lags behind high-performing districts like Hampton Township School District, which has a Fox Chapel Area High School that ranks 15th out of 674 Pennsylvania high schools. Additionally, Riverview's statewide ranking has declined over the past several years, which is a concerning trend that the district should address.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote Love this school!!! Close Quote

Open Quote The teachers, guidance counselors and principals are great. The small class size is good. The students can be involved in many activities due to the small size of the school. They need improvement in meeting the needs of special education children. Focus is more on the more intelligent children--not the middle or special needs children. Close Quote

Open Quote Caring teachers, individualized attention, accessible and helpful principals and counselors. Great education and small class sizes. A lot of extracurriculars and wonderful opportunities, especially for such a small school. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
