Richfield High School is the only public traditional high school in Richfield, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis located directly south of the Minneapolis city limits.
In 2005, in an effort towards realism regarding credits for students, a new policy was introduced by the administration: the number of credits a student has affects his or her current grade level. Under the new system, if a student has less than eight credits, he or she is automatically a part of the freshman class, regardless of age.
Also introduced in 2005 was the "Spartan Crew", a team primarily consisting of seniors for the purpose of orienting new freshmen and easing the transition between middle school and high school. This program is comparable to "link programs" currently in place at other area high schools. Each member of the Spartan Crew is in charge of 3-10 freshman, who become that senior's "crew". The administration hopes that this new system will be more effective and cost-efficient than the "freshman retreats" of the past.
Athletics: Richfield High School is a member of the Classic Suburban Conference in the Minnesota State High School League.
