Welcome to Riverside Middle School! Whether you are joining us from a Greenville County School or from another state, we want to help you transition as smoothly as possible into RMS. Below you will find information about our procedure for enrolling new students and the documents necessary to enroll your child in a Greenville County school. To expedite the enrollment process, please have all documentation and paperwork completed prior to coming in. This will help you streamline the process and allow us to ensure that your child is placed in the appropriate classes. If you are coming from another Greenville County School, you should call the school and let them know that you will be transferring to Riverside Middle School. We will be unable to enroll them if they are still listed as an active student at their previous school.
