Rhodes Elementary School

I absolutely love this school. My two girls have been going here for 2 yrs and they love the school and the teachers.

Rhodes School isn't all that wonderful. I would suggest to anyone that will be moving into the area your Property taxes are not well spent in educating your child. The school has been going downhill. Bussing in from the neighboring town has also greatly impacted the school.

Rhodes has really gone downhill the past few years. Great teachers retired or quit, and some of the replacements are, frankly, horrible. My daughter is on the honor roll every quarter; however, when she tells me some of the things that go on I am appalled.

This is such a great school. The teachers are very helpful and respect each and every student! They have great activities for the students to be involved in! The staff always insures us to be safe around the neighborhood by giving us letters saying something has happened and the parents should be aware of! Going into high school next year i know i will be prepared thanks to all the teachers who have helped me!

Being a graduate of the class of 2004 I agree with Olga Boczon. Each teacher that I had throughout my student career at Rhodes gave time and dedication to each and every student. I am now in mostly honors and high honors courses and I feel that my Rhodes teachers prepared me very well for these courses. Not only was the material studied but study skills and note taking were also tought which is a great help this year. The performing arts is also a great program at Rhodes. I would highly recommend this school.
