My experience with Rochester High School wasn't terrible, but it could've been better. I feel like some of the curriculum taught in the classes could've been taught better. The school spirit is pretty amazing to see here. There are many clubs and sports you can be active in.
10/9/2024
overall Rochester lack focus on the academic side of thing there main focus in sports in particular football. they often lack in the science and english departments and have constant issues with staff turnover. The often overlook the average student and reward the kids that make there sports look good regardless of the fairness or even legalities. I would like to see the school become more inclusive and put more of a emphasis on the academics. aI would also like to see a change in administration as they are making constant choices that effect students and staff ,but often are to a detriment of them.

My high school experience has been pretty good at Rochester High School. I think the best part of my experience has been having teachers who support me and my interests. I think the worst part of my experiences has been the occasional lack of communication between myself and members of staff. Another not great part of this school is the food. Occasionally, the food is great. Other times, not so much.

This used to be a good school district. This district is "small town" thinking. They allow discrimination, and bullying starting with administration, which allows the students to follow in their footsteps. The board supports the superintendent and will not listen to parents and students, so there is...

Sending two kids through Rochester. It is a small town school with small town mentality. Lots of nepotism. Many teachers were students at Rochester, most have college from same universities. No place for creative kids. Homework every night. Lots of bullying. Can't wait for them to graduate out of th...

I went to Rochester High School and received an excellent education and currently have been a parent with the school district for 3 years now.

The entire community of Rochester is top notch. It is clear that the education of our children is top priority in our town. The schools provide a very quality education that is well rounded with academics as well as strong theatre arts and sports. Way to go Rockets!!
