Pinewood Elementary School

Montessori is a great program with excellent teachers. I’ve had great experience with the school staff and they are always involved with their students. They have tons of activities for the students as well for the parents.

All the teachers and staff are so friendly and down to earth. Greet each student every morning and make them feel welcome!

Best K-8 (and on of the few in town!) in Rochester. We wanted K-8 based on all the education literature that has overwhelmingly supported this model over a junior high model. Incredible community of parents and families and very close knit.

Victory Christian Academy is like every other school. They exceed in many places but there are places that they could improve. Speaking as a graduate I loved Victory! They give you something more: friends that last a life time, sufficient time with teachers and genuine care. They don't just see you as a student or someone who gives them money. They strive to teach your child character so they will be good citizens and appreciate who they are as individuals. As a teacher I make it a point to let my students know that I love them no matter what and if I am being a little hard on them it is to make them a better person and not because I love hurting people. My goal is to have each student learn more than they ever could in a public school and to feel secure. They don't have to be afraid of bullying, school shootings, the pressures of classmates to do wrong or the school doing things behind the parents back. I am here for the students and their families to have a better education and a better life because of the character traits I teach them. I am thankful for graduating from here. I owe my life to this school.
