I went to Allendale Columbia school starting in Pre-K. I grew up with so many wonderful people who helped me grow and learn. The food, diversity, and sports could be better, but overall, the school is crazy nice, and the teachers actually care about you and your wellbeing. :)

Allendale is without question the premier private school in Rochester. As an alumnus, and a parent of an alumnus, I have over 50 years under my belt as a part of AC's rich tradition.

Every facet of life under the birches is an experience in enrichment.

Our son's experience was well rounded and intense at the same time. We strongly recommend this school to those who value education within and outside the classroom.
