Riverside High School will follow the in-district transfer process as outlined in the board policy JECBB. To ensure a smooth transition, it is best for transfers to occur between school years. If needed, a transfer may occur at the semester break on a case-by-case basis. 

Staff will be hired based on interest, appropriate qualifications for the positions, and a desire to build an amazing community of Riverside Raptors.

Riverside High School will follow the in-district transfer process as outlined in the board policy JECBB. To ensure a smooth transition, it is best for transfers to occur between school years. If needed, a transfer may occur at the semester break on a case-by-case basis. With all WLWV high schools being accredited, all transcribed credits will transfer between schools.

Yes, the AP credit will be transferred and will go on the student's transcript, and the student will be placed in the next appropriate course.

Riverside High School will have the same start and end times as both West Linn and Wilsonville High Schools. The school day begins at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 3:05 p.m.

Riverside plans to have two options to earn college credit. 

• Articulated courses: Riverside High School students may receive college credits for some of their high school courses through “articulated credit” programs. “Articulated” courses are high school courses that match content and outcomes to particular college courses. Although taught in high school, the course materials, course content, and instructional quality are consistent with, or articulated with, courses offered by local community colleges and universities. These could potentially include core, electives, and CTE coursework.

Riverside will offer Spanish, Chinese and American Sign Language (ASL). Riverside is still determining if other World Languages will be offered.  

Riverside will follow the WLWV school board policy JECBA when considering admission of Exchange Students at Riverside High School. For RHS students wishing to study abroad through a non-district program, students and families will work with their counselor and school administration. 

Riverside High School will offer Spanish language courses, which will be rigorous and advanced level courses. At this time, Riverside will not be offering content courses in Spanish, meaning Riverside will not be an official Dual Language school.

Yes, for the summer of 2023, students can complete summer courses for credit at Wilsonville and West Linn high schools. In future years, Riverside plans to host its own summer courses.

Riverside will work diligently with our 9th & 10th grade leaders to establish our school culture during the 2023-24 school year. This work will be done with intentional support from our staff to set up Riverside for the future. RHS culture will continue to evolve as we continue to add grade levels.

In the West Linn-Wilsonville School District, we believe that all students belong. The evidence from 30 years of educational research shows that all students do better in inclusive settings — including students with and without disabilities.

We are committed to creating equity and inclusivity throughout our learning communities.

Promoting inclusive and equitable classrooms involves 7 key components:

• Effective Physical Spaces
• Teaching Common Expectations
• Engagement Strategies
• Teaching Social-Emotional Skills
• Relationships with High Expectations
• Routines, Rituals and Recognition
• Restorative Practices

This is dependent on the type of sport or activity that the student wishes to participate in. If the sport or activity is OSAA-sponsored, students CANNOT participate at another WLWV high school. Students can participate in any club sport or activity that is not OSAA-sponsored, however. 

At this time, we do not know the specific clubs that will be offered. Clubs will be based primarily on student interest.

Riverside is working on these specifics and are coordinating with other schools, facilities, and programs to make sure that we can make arrangements that benefit all student-athletes in our schools and communities.

At this time, we do not have a plan to provide transportation. Students may participate in club sports at other high schools if they are able to find their own transportation, however.

Studies have proven over and over again that students who become involved in high school activities and/or sports programs feel more connected at school, get better grades, have better attendance, and have a better chance for success later in life. Most sports programs will be "no cut".  Students will not need to be an expert to participate. RHS will be starting with freshmen and JV teams (Varsity starting in 2024-25) so there will be many opportunities to grow as an athlete.
