Why I Love RISD

We understand that many of our students, families, and community members have had unique experiences while being part of the RISD community. That is why we have compiled some inspiring testimonials from our Richardson ISD community to share with you. From high school seniors and college-bound students to parents, community members, teachers, and staff members, these testimonials will give you an inside look into the RISD experience.
