Rochester is one of the best in the area. The school offers a wide variety of electives and opportunities for students to succeed inside and outside the classroom. Most of the teachers are great and hands on, while some one can question how they got into teaching. Everyone is there to help the students in any way they can. The school spirit is always amazing and how diverse the community is, the comradery with sports and what not is special and makes Rochester great.

Going to this school definitely has its benefits. The student body is diverse, both in culture and social standing, and most people are very friendly, enriching the learning environment. Most of the teachers are great - full of wisdom and with an enthusiasm to share it. As with all schools, I would suppose, there are those few teachers that make you question why they went into education, seeing as they despise their students so much. Overall, though, I have learned invaluable lessons at this school, and made several lifelong friends.
