Riverdale Kingsbridge Academy

The David A. Stein Riverdale/Kingsbridge Academy is a public middle school and high school in the Riverdale neighborhood of the Bronx. It serves roughly 1,500 students. The school opened as Junior High School 141 in 1957 after a years-long crusade by local parents and the Riverdale Press to bring new schools to a neighborhood that was experiencing explosive growth. A similar effort added the high school in 1999.
