Riverview High School (RHS) is a high school in Riverview, New Brunswick, Canada that was founded in September 1962 starting with two Grade 10 classes. Prior to that date Grades 10 through 12 from the then community of Riverview Heights attended Moncton High School. From its beginnings until 1976, the high school was located at 92 Devere Road. In 1977 a new facility was opened on an 18-hectare site about two kilometres west of the old school (which became a middle school and which continues to function). The new school featured a swimming pool, auditorium and cafeteria, features the old school did not possess. In 2006 the aditorium began conversions to permit it to operate independently for community use. The school colours are red and white, and the mascot is a lion.

Over the years the school has contributed numerous persons of renown in the local, provincial, and national arenas, including at least one Rhodes Scholar.
