I went to Riverview and absolutely loved it! The teachers were amazing and so were the extra-curriculars. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone, the atmosphere is so friendly! I am now a senior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and will graduate this year. I don't think I would have gotten this far without the foundation I gained at Riverview.

I am not sure how many reviews below are actually parent reviews and not staff that has children attending Riverview and calling it "submitted by parent". The PTO is a closed knit of the same woman year after year that elect themselves. There is no outside participation since most parents have probably at one point tried to make a difference and were either shot down on ideas or the group is just so closed off that no one can try to make a difference. The school lacks world history/culture with 94% white students, they need to come out of their shell and teach these children a little about the world and what it's like outside of little rural Silver Lake. Educational field trips besides the same apple orchards and zoos is needed. How about a museum in Chicago, a ballet, or even the symphony? There are no after school activities for children younger than 4th or 5th grade. With high child obesity rates children need to have more than 2-3 gym classes per week. There is no close by community options for gymnastics, music, or drama instructions. One has to travel at least 10-15 miles to find extra curricular activities. The playground is probably as old as the school. Needs replacement!

The teachers care about the kids so much that they stay late, use their own money to cover students' needs, and treatthem as their own children. The kids accept each other for who they are despite their social/economical status, too. Learning takes place at enagaging levels and kids feel like this is home.

Riverview is a great school with dedicated teachers and a supportive community. We take pride in our smaller class sizes and have many staff members who are alumni. I pour my heart and soul into this school everyday and as a teacher and a parent of the students here I wouldn't have it any other way.

We have two children at Riverview and every year the teachers have not only met, but exceeded our expectations. We had looked at private schools, but after spending time inside the classrooms found Riverview to be BETTER than the schools we would have paid for.
