Riverside High School is the second largest high school in Kanawha County, and is located in Belle, West Virginia, USA.
The school opened in 1999 as a result of the consolidation of DuPont High School (AA) in Dupont City and East Bank High School (AA) in East Bank. Students from both of those former high schools, Cedar Grove and Montgomery areas attend the school. The school's attendance district runs from the Kanawha-Fayette county line to the Charleston city limits.
The school premises house a full service branch of the Kanawha County Public Library, a Pioneer Federal credit union, and facilities operated by Cabin Creek Health Center. Separate entrances are available for community members.
