GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

As an alum, now in college. I can easily say that the difference between my peers is night and day. I have a very large advancement because of the Highschool which I went to.

The teachers are very wonderful and range in the way they run their classes. the administration has had their moments in which I personally have found confusing and have provided a lack of communication, but the staff encourages a safe, exciting learning environment.

Rochester Adams High School is not only a school for most people, but a home. It is very inclusive, and provides endless of opportunities for everyone to take part of. I am so thankful to be part of this community, because I have not only learned a lot, but met some of my greatest friends. One thing I would like to see change is the elimination of a club fee. Many people want to join clubs, but don't because there is a $30 entry requirement AT LEAST for each club. This holds people back from trying new things.
