Paddy Hill Elementary School

This school is shockingly bad considering that it's k-6. Levels of violence. The principle has a "my hands are tied" approach and problem children fall through the cracks. Much of the teaching staff feel trapped. They're great people, but are permitted no control. Th city of Rochester school district is a disaster and it matches the city it's in. We're trying desperately to escape. There's no real support with a struggle.

All of my children attended this school from preschool through 8th grade. The teacher's and administration were great. Not perfect, but overall they really care about the students and try their best to give students a strong academic and spiritual foundation. I would highly recommend this school.

when I attended this school most kids were not acting like children. we all just grew up fast because we get taught more. The principal, counselor, and teachers do not help with mental health at all. For all the treat you like you are less because of it. there are some excellent teachers but most of the newer teachers were terrible. The principal acts like he is welcoming. I joined the school before he came. I don't recommend that you send your kids here. It seemed to be an amazing school but it's the worst one ever, showing how it has parent volunteers, and grandmas working at the school. some teachers like the 5th and 6th science teachers are terrible, she just lets kids run around, and donest let work happen. This school needs new staff.
