Research Riverside Academy - West Campus charter Schools in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

“This school has much improved since it opened in 2006. The teachers are excellent. If parents would get more involved with disciplining their children and promoting education, the school and teachers would excel even farther.”

“Riverside Academy is a mid-tier school that needs to update it's educational curriculum. 11h grade classes there, such as Chemistry and Algebra 2, lag behind Star & Universal Academy's Pre-Calculus and Physics courses. Pretty much most of the classes lag 1 year behind in comparision - basically. Behavior is not as severe as I heard it was last year (my 1st year here as a student), but Principal Ramzi Saab is doing an excellent job of enforcing the rules/ laying down the law for those who refuse to cooperate. The only changes I believe need to be made are: better tutoring programs, some work on the curriculum and a check on the teachers to make sure they're doing their job and not just relaxing all the time. Overall, okay school.. - just take what I say with a grain of salt; as I'm a tough critic..”

“As a student at Riverside Academy, I really think that the school has a really long way to go. That's not to say that it doesn't have the potential, but as of right now it is in the process of being built up. Most of the teachers are good people, but some of them are underaverage when it comes to teaching and getting their points across. The main important thing that needs to be changed is the students' attitudes about the school.”

“I am a student of this school. It is wonderful. The teachers are caring and very nice.They teach Arabic and never put stress on students.”

“The school academic is excellent and the staff are working very hard to make to offer the best to parent, but school need help from parents to control our student behavior god bless dr. Harp and all the staff at river side academy. And i love the way that mrs. Beydoun deal with our children.”

“A huge disappointment sums it up! I do not feel my daughter is safe there and she will be in a different school for the next school year for sure. I would highly recommend avoiding riverside west so that your child will be protected and you will not have to change your child's school in the middle of the year.”
