Local Scholarship Recipients 2025
Congratulations to the 40 senior students who received nearly $94,000 in scholarships at the 33rd Annual Riverside Brookfield High School Local Scholarship Reception! The Class of 2025 is an exemplary class that we will miss greatly, but we can't wait to see how they will continue to grow once they leave RB. Thank you to all our partners who continue to financially award RB students who excel inside and outside the classroom, and special thank you to Riverside Bank for their generous donation for the breakfast.
