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.

The best parts about my experience at this school was the atmosphere of the school during the football games.

I think the best parts were some of the teachers I had. Some of them were very passionate. I also like being able to meet new friends here. The worst part were some racist/sexist indivudals who attended

Rochester High is an alright school, I've had a pretty average time there. I've had many fun classes along with many unfun ones. There are no fights or big dramas that really go on, the administration does a fine enough job of preventing those sorts of things. The administration however fails in its ability to connect with its students, isolating itself from them.
