About one-third of the students are enrolled in the extensive French Immersion program. Approximately 90 percent of students pursue post-secondary education. Richview is also one of the few remaining schools along with York Memorial C.I. in Toronto that runs on a non-semestered, year-long schedule (meaning all classes last all year on an alternating day schedule). Most Toronto District School Board schools offer semester-based schedules.
It also has a reputation for turning down students who are not from the "elite" Etobicoke area.

“I am sorry to say we whites have a sad reputation among many of the Polynesians. The natives of these islands are naturally of a kindly and hospitable temper, but there has been implanted among them an almost instinctive hate of the white man. They esteem us, with rare exceptions, such as some of the missionaries, the most barbarous, treacherous, irreligious, and devilish creatures on the earth.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
“Hope is the only universal liar who never loses his reputation for veracity.”
